Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureOne app for sale prices, coupons, automatic discounts and volume discounts. Set discount prices in bulk, show compare-at prices crossed out at checkout. Run a flash sale, scheduled sale or recurring sale with start & end dates; regular prices are restored when it ends. Add quantity discounts with a tiered pricing table on product pages.
Slow sellers tie up cash until the only fix is deep clearance. Sale House measures how fast each product actually sells, flags slow movers early, and marks them down in small steps you approve up front. Every step is checked against your margin floor and discount cap before any price changes, and the campaign stops once your sales goal is met, then reverts or holds the price.
- Promote your sales with customizable announcement bars
- Show customers their savings in the cart
- Apply discounts for multiple products automatically and roll them back when need
- Set up a single launch or recurring discount schedule
- Automatically detects slow-moving products from your real sales history
- Gradual markdown campaigns that discount in small steps you approve up front
- Margin floor, discount cap, and zero-price protection on every price change
- New products are protected until they have enough sales history to judge
