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.
Smart Clearance Manager automatically discounts products that haven't sold in a while, so you can clear dead stock without lifting a finger. Set your own rules — choose how many days without a sale triggers a markdown, how deep the discount goes, and a price floor so you never sell below cost.
- 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
- Automated daily markdowns — set rules once and auto-discount slow-movers by days
- Price floor protection — set minimum price by margin to protect profitability
- Multi-step discounting — deeper discounts the longer items sit, with compare-at
