See every featureRound Shopify prices automatically and protect your margins. Margin Master by Inverge Auto-updates product prices to maintain your target profit and rounds them to clean values like .99, .95, or whole numbers. Perfect after cost changes, vendor price updates, margin adjustments, or bulk edits.
Discount tools control the inputs — a percent off, a code cap, a schedule — but don't check whether the order stays profitable once shipping, fees, and stacked discounts apply. Margin Protector calculates true margin on every cart at checkout using your product costs and the cart's actual discounts, shipping, and fees.
