Global & cross-border marketplaces

ShopAPIS turns nine borderless e-commerce platforms — the cross-border SKU giants Temu and Shein, AliExpress’s per-country pricing, Etsy’s handmade/vintage catalog, the sneaker resale duo StockX and GOAT, the C2C fashion markets Poshmark and Depop, and millions of Shopify DTC storefronts — into one normalized product schema. These are the platforms with no usable official API and the toughest anti-bot stacks, so one consistent JSON contract replaces nine bespoke scrapers.

Together these surfaces move enormous volume: Temu ~246M MAU and ~$22–25B GMV per quarter, Shein ~215M MAU, AliExpress ~159M MAU, Etsy ~$7.2B marketplace GMS with 93.2M buyers, StockX and GOAT $2B+ GMV each, and Shopify ~$378B GMV across 5.6M live stores (ShopAPIS research, June 2026). ShopAPIS returns price, currency, variants, seller/shop, condition, ratings and images from every one — part of coverage spanning 70+ marketplaces across 30+ countries.

What makes “global” different

Cross-border and vertical platforms each hide a different kind of data behind a different defense. Marketplace giants like Temu and Shein churn millions of cheap SKUs daily and run the hardest anti-bot in the industry. Resale verticals add condition grades, sold comps, size-level pricing and authentication status. DTC infrastructure (Shopify) is a parsing pattern — one schema across millions of independent themes. ShopAPIS specializes per type and normalizes the output.

Only Etsy and Shopify expose a documented official API; the rest — Temu, Shein, AliExpress, StockX, GOAT, Poshmark and Depop — have no usable public feed, so public-page parsing is the only route to catalog-grade pricing. ShopAPIS runs and maintains that infrastructure, absorbing layout rotations, signed requests and geo-gated pricing so a single JSON contract stays stable while the underlying sites change.
