This research was conducted as an alternative technology to facilitate information disclosure of product prices. The method used in this study is action reseach. In this research phase, researchers used the gateway service technology service with a functional PostgreSQL database. The results on usability testing showed that the average score was 88.3%. Application testing results obtained from the application effectiveness level in the range of 89%, the application effectiveness level in the range of 90% and on application satisfaction in the range of 86%. The use of the application is expected to help the public in getting more varied pricing information so as to achieve perfect price competition***Informasi harga produk menjadi salah satu hal yang sering diresahkan masyarakat karena informasi mengenai harga produk sering berbeda dikalangan penjual.
