How the Hotline.ua API works
Hotline.ua is a normal ReefAPI surface — the same four rules that hold for every other engine on the key.
No OAuth app, no request signing, no per-site account. One key covers all 530 engines.
Every route is a POST with a JSON body. Parameters are validated against the published schema before anything is charged.
Credits, not seats. Failed and blocked calls are never charged, and cache hits cost nothing.
One envelope everywhere. meta carries latency_ms, record_count and the endpoint that answered.
From a keyword to every shop's price in your city
Search once, then read the shop list and the price chart with the same id.
48 products per page with product_id, price range, shop count, brand and category, plus the exact total and brand facets.
Every shop with price, condition, delivery methods and their stated cost, warranty, rating and the paid-placement flag.
The same product for a buyer in Lviv, cheapest first.
The price curve in UAH and USD and the site's own price change over 14 days to all time.
One product's full shop list for the city you sell in, with its price curve.

}What a Hotline.ua field actually contains
Fields that read differently from how they look. Every row was measured against live hotline.ua pages on 2026-10-15.
| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| product_id | Hotline's numeric product id as a string (24927903). Pass it unchanged to product, offers and price_history; search and category rows of every kind returned the same id and the same lowest price on 18 of 18 round trips. |
| row_type | product for a product with several shops, single_offer when only one shop sells it (shop_name, offer_id and outbound_url are then set). Both open with product and offers. |
| lowest_price, highest_price | The site's own current price range for the product, the same numbers the product page prints ('ціни: 23 171 – 47 499 ₴'): matched on 8 of 8 product pages in each of two runs, and equal to the cheapest and the most expensive row of offers. |
| cheapest_new_offer | The lowest price among new-condition offers. lowest_price can come from a marked-down offer: for an iPhone 15 128GB it was 23 171 UAH from a marked-down unit while the cheapest new one was 28 700 UAH. |
| condition | new, discounted (the site's 'уцененный': marked down, open box or display unit) or used; condition_text keeps the site's own word. |
| listing_type, has_bid | sponsored for a paid placement, regular otherwise. The default offer order is the site's own, which puts paid placements first (24 of 67 offers for the iPhone 15 in Kyiv). |
| delivery_methods, lowest_stated_delivery_cost | Each delivery option (Nova Poshta, Ukrposhta, courier, pickup) with its cost: 0 when free, the amount when the shop states one, null for 'carrier tariff'. Hotline publishes no single shipping fee, so there is no total price. |
| city, same_city, ships_from | The offer list is for the buyer's city: 67 shops for the iPhone 15 in Kyiv, 61 in Lviv, 60 in Kharkiv, 61 in Odesa on the same day. Prices of a shop do not change with the city; same_city and the order do. |
| shop_rating_percent | The shop's rating on Hotline's 0-100 scale, with positive and negative review counts; null for a new shop without reviews. |
| price_history series | Average, lowest and highest shop price in UAH and USD and the number of offers, twice a month from the product's start and daily for recent weeks. Periods the site kept no lowest or highest price for are null, not zero. |
Prices are in UAH as the shops list them on Hotline.ua; a few carry kopecks (13 660.23).
Hotline.ua coverage, measured
Every number below was read from live hotline.ua responses on 2026-10-15, in three runs and a row-type round-trip check.
Smartphones 4 495 products, laptops 8 367, TVs 2 252, vacuum cleaners 1 979; "iphone 15" 2 158 search results.
2 to 100 per product in our sample; iPhone 15 128GB 67 in Kyiv, 61 in Lviv, 60 in Kharkiv, 61 in Odesa.
The page's printed offer count, lowest and highest price matched product and offers on 8 of 8 product pages, in each of two runs.
Brand 2 158 → 361 (48 of 48 rows on the brand); price window 4 495 → 1 306; price sorts in order on 48 of 48 rows; offer sorts on 67 of 67.
Search, category and single-shop rows round-tripped to product, offers and price_history with the same product_id on 18 of 18.
Search has no sort and 48 rows per page; no single shipping fee exists (per-method costs only, most say 'carrier tariff'); product reviews, Q&A and attribute filters are not returned; a category's last pages can hold fewer rows than its stated total.

The questions people actually ask before wiring up Hotline.ua.
Get a free key →Do I need a Hotline.ua account?▾
No. Everything is read logged out, and you call reefapi.com from anywhere.
Why does the shop list change with the city?▾
Hotline shows the shops that deliver to the buyer's city. On 2026-10-15 an iPhone 15 128GB had 67 offers in Kyiv, 61 in Lviv, 60 in Kharkiv and 61 in Odesa; the 61 shops present in both Kyiv and Lviv had identical prices. Pass city = kyiv, lviv, kharkiv, odesa, dnipro, zaporizhzhia, vinnytsia, poltava, mykolaiv or kherson.
How many shops does offers return?▾
All of them in one call: 2 to 100 shops per product in our sample (iPhone 15 128GB: 67 in Kyiv).
Is the search total exact?▾
Yes. "iphone 15" reported 2 158 results; 44 pages of 48 plus 46 rows on page 45 is exactly 2 158, and page 46 is empty.
Which filters are there?▾
Search: brand (iphone 15 → Apple only: 2 158 → 361, 48 of 48 rows Apple). Category: a price window (smartphones 4 495 → 1 306 for 10 000-20 000 UAH) and six sorts; price ascending and descending were in order on 48 of 48 rows. The price window keeps a product whose price range touches it.
Is shipping included in the price?▾
No. Hotline lists each shop's delivery methods with their own cost; most say 'carrier tariff' without a number. You get every method's cost where stated and the lowest stated one.
How far back does price_history go?▾
To the product's start on the site: October 2023 for the iPhone 15, 427 points to the previous day, with the site's own price change over 14 and 30 days, 3 and 6 months, a year and all time.
Are sponsored shops marked?▾
Yes. Each offer carries has_bid and listing_type; the default order is the site's own, paid placements first. Ask for sort = price_asc to rank by price.
What is the Hotline.ua API?▾
Hotline.ua API is a ReefAPI endpoint group for ukraine's largest price-comparison site: every shop's price for a product per city, specs, ratings, price history and category listings in uah. It returns live JSON through POST requests under /hotline-ua/v1.
Is the Hotline.ua API free to try?▾
Yes. ReefAPI starts with 1,000 free credits, no card required. Hotline.ua calls use the same shared credit balance as every other ReefAPI engine.
Do I need a Hotline.ua login or account?▾
No login to Hotline.ua is needed for the API response. You call ReefAPI with your x-api-key header, and the playground can run live examples before you create a production key.
How fresh is the Hotline.ua data?▾
The page example is captured from a live search call, and production requests fetch live data through ReefAPI rather than a static sample.
How many credits does the Hotline.ua API use?▾
Hotline.ua actions currently cost 1-3 credits per successful call. Failed or blocked calls are free. All APIs draw from one credit pool.
Can I call Hotline.ua from an AI assistant or MCP client?▾
Yes. Connect ReefAPI once through MCP and your assistant can call hotline-ua actions with the same key, credit pool and JSON envelope used by normal REST requests.
266 E-commerce & Marketplaces APIs on the same key
One key, one credit pool, one response envelope. If you are pulling Hotline.ua, you are one call away from the rest of the category — no second contract, no second integration.
Need something this API does not do?
Name the endpoint, the field, or a source we do not carry yet. We ship new APIs every week and you would be first to get the key. Real people read every message and reply the same day.
Try it on your own data before you pay anything
The call above is the real endpoint, not a recording. A free key gives you 1,000 credits, the other 529 APIs, and the same envelope everywhere.
Endpoints, parameters and credit costs on this page are read from the live catalog and cannot drift from what the API accepts. Field notes were captured on 2026-10-15.
