CheapShark is a price comparison website for digital PC Games. We keep track of prices across multiple stores including Steam, GreenManGaming, Fanatical, and many others.
\nWe offer a fully documented public API for developers to use CheapShark pricing data on their own app or website.
\nThe API is completely free, the only condition being that you use CheapShark links when sending users to deals (see details in Deals section below). This is how we pay for hosting and development! 😉
\nWhile not required, it is always appreciated if you mention somewhere that your app or site is making use of the CheapShark API.
\nTwo of the most common questions we see are regarding API Keys and Rate Limits. The API is completely public, no authorization or API Key is needed. You can get started right away!
\nNote: we do require sending a User-Agent on your incoming requests. Ideally it should be descriptive and specific to your application in order to avoid being accidentally blocked. Including a contact email is also helpful e.g. MyApp/1.0 (contact@example.com)
To ensure server performance, we rate limit API calls. If you make too many requests in too short of time, you will receive a 429 HTTP response status code and be temporarily blocked. The ban will be automatically lifted after it expires. To see the remaining ban time (in seconds) check the Retry-After HTTP response header on any blocked request. All API clients are subject to the same limits. For this reason, during development you may wish to create and use a Mock API instead (Postman offers this feature).
In general the API is designed to be called directly in response to user input / queries in your application. For example, a user searching for a particular game or browsing through pages of deals. Excessive automated requests to build a cached catalog of data will run into rate limiting issues (including a permenant block) and should be avoided. We do this to maintain server performance and keep the service free and open for everyone. If you have a specific use-case that is being blocked, please reach out and we are happy to work with you!
\nThe API fully supports CORS, so requests should come directly from the user's browser or app (whenever possible). This will help avoid most rate limiting issues.
\nFor some real-world examples of this API in action, we suggest you check out the CheapShark website itself. Using your browser's DevTools, you can inspect how various pages and interactions use the API.
\nIf you run into any issues, need help with your implementation, or just want to share what you'll be using the API for, feel free to get in touch with us anytime!
\nWe're always happy to help on our Discord's dedicated #api-help channel or via email - admin@cheapshark.com.
\nWe'll occasionally share important changes or news regarding the API via the #api-announcements channel on our Discord server. Be sure to right-click and set \"Notification Settings\" to \"All Messages\" on the channel if you'd like to stay informed!

For example: if a game is available on 3 stores, it will have 3 separate deal entries, one for each store the game is listed on. For reference, deal entries still exist even when the game is at full price.
\nOn your website or app, you will use the CheapShark redirect page to link users to a specific deal:
\nhttps://www.cheapshark.com/redirect?dealID={id}
📌 Important Note: The redirect page is not an API endpoint and will block automated access. It is designed only to link and send your users to deals. If your use-case requires automation, please get in touch for options!
\nIn general, pricing information is updated from stores about once per hour. However this can fluctuate depending on a number of factors.
\nThe deal rating property provides a quick way to compare how 'good' a deal is. It is normalized on a scale from 0 to 10.
\nPricing data is always in USD. All date fields (releaseDate, lastChange, etc.) are returned in Unix Timestamp format, in seconds. Boolean flags are a 0 or a 1.
