Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureShipping Analytics PRO shows the gap between what customers pay for shipping and what each shipment really costs your store. The app reads shipping data from your Shopify orders, you add the actual carrier cost per order, and the dashboard calculates shipping revenue, cost and margin.
ProfitShield checks each order's true profit at checkout and stops the ones that would lose you money, before you ship them. It computes each order's true net profit — COGS, shipping, payment fees, discounts, and packaging — in real time, then flags or blocks the orders that break your margin rules. Set a profit floor per store; start in Flag mode and switch on Block when you're ready.
