How it sells itself

B2B Guardrail scans your store's B2B configuration and alerts you when wholesale rates, catalogs, or discount codes become visible to retail shoppers. It checks B2B catalogs, discount codes, and automatic discounts across 8 scenarios, ranks findings by severity, and links you directly to the fix in your Shopify admin. Your store gets a protection score from 0 to 100 that updates with every audit.

Discount Guardian shows the net profit of each discount code after product cost, shipping, and payment fees. Each code is marked Keep, Review, or Stop against the margin floor you set. You get an alert when a code drops below that floor, and you can see which products lose money at a chosen discount percent. At checkout, those products can be left out of the discount so the promotion does not cut into profit.

Key points
  • Detects wholesale rates and catalogs exposed to retail shoppers
  • Flags unrestricted discount codes and automatic discounts store-wide
  • Protection score from 0 to 100 with severity-ranked findings
  • Instant email and Slack alerts when a new B2B leak appears
  • Calculate net profit for each discount using costs, shipping, and fees.
  • Review discounts with Keep, Review, or Stop margin status.
  • Get alerts when a discount falls below your margin threshold.
  • Find products with low or negative margins after discounts.
