Qogita comes up often in discussions among sellers doing arbitrage or online arbitrage in Europe, especially in beauty and personal care. Here's what the platform actually offers, how it integrates with ArbitragePro+, and its honest limitations.
What is Qogita?
Qogita presents itself as a B2B wholesale platform for beauty, health and hygiene products, founded in 2021 by Danny and Yaniv Toledano and based in Amsterdam and London. The idea is that of a wholesale marketplace: instead of negotiating individually with dozens of distributors, a professional buyer goes through a single platform that centralizes the catalog, ordering and payment.
The company states on its website that it has more than 500 verified suppliers, around 500,000 listed products and more than 10,000 active buyers, with activity spanning more than 30 countries. These figures come from Qogita itself: they give an order of magnitude but are not independently audited.
Product categories available
Qogita's catalog is concentrated on a few product families rather than being generalist:
- Beauty and personal care: makeup, fragrances, hair care, skincare
- Health and hygiene: dietary supplements, oral hygiene, first aid
- Home care: household products, laundry, storage
- Home and lifestyle: fashion jewelry, candles, diffusers
This specialization is both a strength and a limit: a seller already working in perfumery or cosmetics will find a useful density of brands there, but Qogita isn't a relevant entry point for electronics, generic textiles or DIY.
How Qogita integrates with ArbitragePro+
Qogita is one of the connected and active sources in ArbitragePro+'s supplier catalog, with an import of several hundred thousand catalog rows updated regularly — one of the two largest data volumes among all the sources tracked by the platform, alongside Eany.io.
In practice, this means Qogita's prices and references are continuously compared against target resale prices (Amazon, eBay, etc.), without the seller needing to manually open the Qogita catalog to search for gaps product by product. A barcode match (EAN/UPC/GTIN) automatically identifies correspondences with existing Amazon listings.
For direct access to Qogita itself, the platform also offers API documentation (accessible through its developer area), which makes automated integrations easier for anyone who wants to go beyond a simple catalog import.
Advantages of Qogita
- Brand density within a narrow scope: for beauty and hygiene, the number of verified suppliers gives a real choice of sourcing.
- Verified suppliers: Qogita states it has a supplier verification process, which reduces — without eliminating — the risk of an unreliable catalog.
- Broad geographic coverage: the announced activity in more than 30 countries allows sourcing beyond a single national market.
- Already connected and active in ArbitragePro+: no extra setup needed to compare its catalog against resale prices.
Limitations and points to watch
- Narrow category scope: outside beauty/health/hygiene/home, the catalog quickly loses relevance.
- Unaudited figures: the supplier and product volumes communicated come from Qogita itself, with no published independent third-party verification.
- Net margin still to calculate yourself: as with any wholesaler, a listed price is not a margin — you need to factor in marketplace commission, shipping fees, VAT and possible returns before deciding to buy (see our net margin calculation method).
- Potential competition: a catalog accessible to thousands of active buyers is, by nature, not a secret — detection speed and calculation rigor matter as much as access to the catalog itself.

Frequently asked questions about Qogita
Do you need a registered business to buy on Qogita? Like almost all B2B wholesalers, access to Qogita is reserved for professionals: a valid business registration (VAT number or equivalent depending on the country) is generally required at sign-up. Check the exact conditions and any minimum order requirements directly on Qogita's website, as these parameters can change.
Is Qogita reliable for brand ungating on Amazon? A wholesaler that provides itemized, usable invoices makes ungating easier with Amazon, but the validity of an invoice for a given brand depends on Amazon's specific rules at that time. Always check this before buying in volume with the goal of unlocking a restricted category.
How do you know if a Qogita product is actually profitable? The price shown on Qogita is only an input. It needs to be compared against the actual resale price on the target marketplace, then commission, logistics fees, VAT and a returns provision need to be deducted to get the net margin — this is the comparison ArbitragePro+ automates continuously on the tracked Qogita catalog.
Is Qogita right for you?
If your arbitrage or online arbitrage business already touches beauty, fragrances, cosmetics or hygiene products, Qogita deserves a place in your list of sources: the catalog is specialized, suppliers are stated as verified, and the platform is already connected and up to date in ArbitragePro+, which saves extra manual sourcing work. Outside this scope, other more generalist sources will be more relevant — see our overview of B2B wholesalers for arbitrage.
In any case, a Qogita supplier price is only an actionable signal once compared against the real resale price and the net margin calculation. That's exactly what ArbitragePro+ does continuously, without needing to manually open the Qogita catalog product by product.
