Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureTired of manually marking down unsold inventory? AutoMarkdown automatically reduces prices when products don't sell within your defined timeframe. Set your rules — days without a sale, discount percentage, and floor price — and the app handles the rest. Prices drop progressively until items sell or hit your minimum.
Retail Price Discount lets merchants create virtually any promotion from the Compare-at Price or selling price without changing existing catalog sales. Run automatic discounts, codes, BOGO, Buy X Get Y, free gifts, quantity and variant-based discounts, or combine product discounts and free shipping in one code with delivery-address rules.
- Set discount rules by collection, product type, or vendor
- Progressive markdowns: prices keep dropping until the item sells
- Floor prices protect your margins — never sell below your minimum
- Original prices restore automatically after a sale is made
- Apply discounts from compare-at amounts
- Automatic fallback to regular amount
- Prevent stacking with existing catalog sales
- Optional product-level discount targeting
