Real-time profit guardrail for Shopify

Stop selling
at a loss — automatically.

ProfitShield computes the true profit of every order — COGS, shipping, payment fees, discounts, packaging — and flags or blocks the money-losers right at checkout. Every other profit app just reports the damage after.

The hidden leak

Your 60% gross is really a ~15% net.

Most stores watch revenue. But after the real costs land, some orders barely break even — and a few quietly lose money. ProfitShield does the math on every order so you see the truth.

A 20% discount on a $50 item that costs $20 doesn't cut your profit 20% — it cuts it 33%, from $30 to $20.

Why ProfitShield

The only one that does the math and acts on it.

Analytics tools report. Cart rules are blind. The one true enforcement peer is enterprise-only. ProfitShield is the whole job, at an SMB price.

Full per-order profit and flag/block at checkout — in one app.

Everything in one app

Built to protect the bottom line.

Flag or block at checkout

A Shopify checkout-validation Function stops or tags money-losing orders the instant they happen — verified firing live. Flag by default; block when you are ready.

True per-order profit

Revenue minus COGS, shipping, payment fees, discounts and packaging — the real net on every single order.

Discount simulator

See exactly what a 20% promo does to your margin before you launch it.

AI margin insights

Surfaces the products and promos quietly bleeding your profit.

Cost coverage

Sync product costs from Shopify, import, or API — know what you actually pay.

Shopify or standalone

Run it as an embedded Shopify app, or via the web app with CSV / API for any channel.

“But will blocking cost me sales?”

No. ProfitShield defaults to Flag — it tags the money-losers so you decide. Turn on Block only when you want the guardrail to stop them for you. Profitable orders never see a thing.

Pricing

Costs less than one blocked loss.
