Built-In Protection from Day One

As soon as you’re set up on Pricemaster, Minimum Margin Protection is live. This ensures that no product is ever sold below your chosen margin threshold, no matter what happens. If your cost prices increase suddenly, or a purchasing error brings in higher-than-usual costs, Pricemaster’s protection kicks in immediately—blocking unprofitable pricing before it reaches your store. This means even in fast-changing markets, you're never exposed to loss-making pricing decisions.


Control by Price, Brand & Category

Minimum Margin Protection isn’t one-size-fits-all. With Pricemaster, you can tailor your baseline to match the unique needs of your business—setting different margin rules by product price, brand, category, or even custom attributes. Whether you want tighter margins on low-ticket items or higher protection on premium lines, Pricemaster gives you full control down to the SKU level.

Price Range

Set different margin floors for low-ticket vs. high-ticket products (e.g. 40% on £10–£20 products, 18% on £200–£300 items).

Category or Brand

Apply stricter margin rules to high-margin product groups like accessories, or safeguard specific supplier lines.

Custom Tags & Attributes

Use dynamic tagging to apply your minimum margin rules exactly where you need them. This ensures your margin policy aligns with your product mix, costs, and commercial goals.

Peace of Mind—Profitably Built In

  • Minimum Margin Protection is your safety net—but it’s just the starting point. While your baseline protects against loss, Pricemaster’s AI, rules, and pricing strategies are working every day to go well beyond it.

  • Even if a competitor drops their price dramatically or lists an incorrect value, Pricemaster won’t follow them below your defined floor. Instead, it seeks every opportunity to maximise your margins, only pricing aggressively when it’s truly beneficial to your strategy.

    You’re not just safe—you’re smartly optimised for profit.
