How it sells itself

Shopify keeps each product's COGS as one number in your store's currency. When you buy in yuan, euros or dong, that number goes stale as exchange rates move, and your profit reports drift with it. CostBuffer stores each supplier's invoice amount in their currency, converts it with official exchange rates and updates Shopify's COGS field.

PNL shows what your store actually earns. It reads your orders, applies your product costs — stored on Shopify itself, with dated history so past periods stay accurate — imports your Meta ad spend daily, and deducts transaction fees, per-order duty and fixed monthly costs.

Key points
  • Enter supplier invoice amounts in their currency; Shopify's COGS is set for you
  • Daily official rates; COGS updates when a rate moves past your threshold
  • Use today's rate or a 7, 30 or 90-day mean to smooth out swings
  • Blend each purchase with stock on hand, each at its own day's rate
  • Net profit per day after COGS, ad spend, fees, duty and fixed costs
  • Break-even ROAS and contribution margin per product and variant
  • Meta ad spend imported daily, converted to your store currency
  • Cost history with effective dates so past periods stay accurate
