How it sells itself

CheckoutGuard monitors your Shopify store's order volume around the clock and alerts you the moment something goes wrong. Most revenue problems are invisible. A broken payment gateway, a checkout bug affecting only mobile users, a discount code causing order failures — your store keeps running but orders quietly stop coming in. By the time you notice, you've already lost hours of sales.

ProfitGuard Pro tracks real net profit in real time — not just revenue. It accounts for every deduction: COGS, refunds, discounts, shipping, and payment fees. The Action Center ranks alerts by financial impact so you fix what matters first. The Cause Finder shows which products drive refunds. Dead Inventory flags stock tying up cash. Every week, an AI summary explains your profit trends in plain English.

Key points
  • Real-time order volume monitoring with a 7-day rolling baseline
  • Instant Slack alerts the moment your order rate drops significantly
  • Auto-resolves alerts when your order volume returns to normal
  • Real-time profit dashboard with health score, margin, and revenue trends
  • Smart alerts — refund spikes, revenue drops, discount overuse ranked by impact
  • AI-generated weekly profit summary in plain English
  • Product-level profit and margin breakdown with COGS sync

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
