How to import competitors in batch

If you track a lot of competitors, adding their product URLs one by one is slow. Instead, you can import competitors in batch from a CSV — one row per product, with all of its competitor URLs — and Pricefy attaches them to your catalog by SKU.

Where to import competitors

Go to Competitors → Monitored URLs, click Import & Export in the top-right corner, and choose Import Competitors URLs.

The Import & Export menu on Pricefy’s Monitored URLs page, with the Import Competitors URLs option.

Prepare your CSV file

Each row is one of your products plus the competitor URLs you want to track for it.

  • sku — the SKU of a product in your catalog. Required: Pricefy uses it to attach the URLs to the right product.
  • competitor1, competitor2, … — one competitor product URL per column. Add as many as you need, numbering them up to competitor100.

A competitors file looks like this:

sku,competitor1,competitor2,competitor3
GN-581,https://store-a.com/product,https://store-b.com/product,https://store-c.com/product
GN-580,https://store-a.com/other-product,,

Click Download CSV Template in the window for a ready-made example.

Upload and import

In the Import Competitors URLs window, drop your CSV onto the upload area (or click Browse File), then click Import.

The Import Competitors URLs modal in Pricefy, with the CSV upload area and Download CSV Template link.
  • The file must be a .CSV, up to 20 MB.
  • The header must include sku and at least one competitor column.

How matching works

Pricefy matches each row to your catalog by SKU:

  • If a SKU in the file isn’t in your catalog, that row is skipped and its URLs aren’t imported.
  • When that happens, you receive an email with a recap of the skipped SKUs.

After the import

Your competitor URLs appear in the Monitored URLs list, where Pricefy tracks each one’s price and stock against your product.
