A rival's Friday markdown can sit unseen until Monday, by which time your Tradivo listing or online shelf has already lost the sale. 4pricing checks the listed prices of the stores you choose, shows the lowest price for each product, and gives a recommended price that you apply yourself.
4pricing checks prices on the competitor shops you add by URL — for example The Warehouse, Noel Leeming, PB Tech, Kmart NZ, Mighty Ape or Briscoes — for the products you choose, from every hour upward. You get an alert on the first check that catches a change, the price history is kept, and an algorithm (not generative AI) calculates a recommended price. You decide what to change in your own shop.
On top of monitoring, 4pricing prepares a briefing every day: what moved at your competitors, where you can raise a price without losing your position, where your margin is thinning and what is worth doing first. Every finding comes with the evidence it was built from and, where there is a basis for it, an estimated monthly value.
Your price changes only when you apply it manually, and the webhook goes only to the destination you set.
4pricing gives you the data through a REST API (with API keys), an alert webhook and a CSV or Excel export. There are no ready-made connectors for ERP, WMS or marketplaces: what happens with the data is built by your own team or developers.
All data collected by 4pricing is available through a documented REST API: current competitor price per product, complete price history and algorithm-driven recommended price.
The signed webhook sends an HTTP notification on alerts. 4pricing does not write prices into your shop or your ERP: you apply the recommended price yourself, manually. There are no ready-made connectors.
You add products by pasting the product-page URL, one link at a time. You decide which product pages — yours and your competitors' — are watched.
CSV or Excel export runs on demand, in one click from the dashboard, with the complete price history. If you need a fixed cadence, call the same export from the REST API and schedule it with your own cron.
4pricing tracks the price shown on PB Tech or Noel Leeming like any other shop on your list and places it next to the rest of your competitors on the same product. When a competitor undercuts you, or when you are no longer the cheapest among the monitored shops, the alert reaches you at the next check, together with the recommended price to get back in front.
You choose the shops: add any online shop by product URL — The Warehouse, Mighty Ape, JB Hi-Fi NZ or Trade Me are only examples — and set a different check interval per product. There are no ready-made connectors, and we do not guarantee that every shop can be read.
Earn recurring commissions by recommending the 4pricing.net price comparison tool to your partners and contacts
4pricing.net is a price tracker for New Zealand online retailers who want to know how their prices compare with their competitors. You decide which shops you follow — you add each one by product URL, for example The Warehouse, Noel Leeming, PB Tech or Kmart NZ — and how often each product is checked, depending on your plan. You get an alert at the first check that catches a competitor changing a price, plus a recommended price calculated by the algorithm — sharp enough to win the sale, without giving away your margin.
We are upfront. Here is where 4pricing.net is not yet the right fit:
Paste the links to the product pages, yours and your competitors', one by one.
The system checks prices at the interval you set for each product, from one hour up, and sends an in-app inbox alert and a signed webhook call at the first check that catches a change.
Review the recommended price and the competitor history, then decide: approve the proposed price or apply it yourself, by hand.
