Core
Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureStackGuard lets you run overlapping promotions — percentage, fixed, BOGO, buy-A-get-B, mix-and-match bundles, and volume tiers — while a hard guardrail caps the total discount on every cart and item, so a stack can never cut below your margin floor. Every discount is explainable: a clear trace shows exactly which rules applied and why.
Veda helps merchants create discounts using plain language while protecting profitability. Instead of configuring complex rules manually, you describe your goal and Veda drafts the discount logic for you. Before anything goes live, Veda analyzes stacking rules, exclusions, and potential margin impact so you understand exactly how a discount will behave at checkout.
