Amazon or Walmart:
which is cheaper?
Paste an Amazon link or type a product name. See live prices on both stores and the gap on the closest match.
A free Amazon vs Walmart price checker
The same product is often priced differently on Amazon and Walmart, and the gap moves daily. Checking both by hand means two searches, two tabs and guessing which Walmart listing is the same item. This tool does both lookups at once and lines the results up side by side.
Shoppers use it to pick the cheaper store. Resellers use it as a first pass for online arbitrage, and brands use it to spot a retailer undercutting the other. For a full catalog, the same two endpoints run from your own code.

Check the gap
The closest match shows which store is cheaper and by how much. Open both listings to confirm it is the same item, size and condition before you buy or list.
Frequently asked questions
How does it find the same product on Walmart?+
With an Amazon link or ASIN, it reads the product title from Amazon, searches Walmart with the key words of that title, and picks the Walmart listing whose title overlaps most. That is why the result is labelled closest match: always open both listings and confirm the model, size and condition.
Can I search by product name instead of a link?+
Yes. Type a name and the tool searches both stores and shows the top five priced results from each, then compares the top Amazon result with its closest Walmart match.
Are the prices live?+
Yes. Every comparison fetches current prices from both stores at the moment you run it. Nothing is cached between runs.
Does it show third-party sellers?+
Yes. Walmart results show the seller name, so you can tell Walmart itself from marketplace sellers. For the Amazon listing it shows who the product is sold by. Refurbished and renewed listings are included when a store returns them, so check the title.
Is it useful for online arbitrage?+
It is a quick first check: is there a gap worth looking at? For real sourcing you also need fees, shipping, sales rank and restrictions. The API lets you run the same comparison across a whole catalog and add those checks in your own code.
Is it free?+
Yes. You get 5 free comparisons a day with no account. Sign up free to keep comparing on your own Scavio credits, or call the endpoints from your code.
Which stores and countries does it cover?+
The tool compares amazon.com with walmart.com in US dollars. The API also covers 22 Amazon marketplaces and Walmart Canada.
Can I export the comparison?+
There is no one-click export. Through the API you get structured JSON from POST /api/v1/amazon/product, /api/v1/amazon/search and /api/v1/walmart/search that you can write to any spreadsheet or database.
Why are some prices missing?+
Some listings show no price until an option is chosen, or are out of stock. The tool skips unpriced listings when it picks the closest match.
