How do I set a default profit margin for new products?
You can set a default profit margin for all new product listings in your store settings. This helps keep your pricing consistent, whether you publish manually, via CSV, or through API.
Note
This setting only applies to new listings and does not affect existing products. Prices are calculated directly from the margin and are not adjusted to retail-friendly values (e.g., you may see USD 15.34 instead of USD 15.50 or 15.99).
To set a default profit margin
- Go to Store Settings → Publishing Preferences.
- In the Default profit margin field, enter your preferred percentage (e.g., 45%).
- Click Save.
The setting applies per store, so you can use different defaults across multiple stores.
Tip
If you'd like to apply the same profit margin to existing products, you’ll need to update them manually or through bulk editing.
