Why It Matters

Pricing should not feel like guesswork or a constant manual battle.

The new Pricemaster Market Rules system gives retailers and brands more control, more flexibility, and more precision. Whether you manage hundreds or hundreds of thousands of SKUs, it helps you build pricing strategies around real market movement rather than one-size-fits-all rules or spreadsheet work.

01

See the market daily

Track competitor movement, daily price changes, and where market pressure is building across your catalogue.

02

Build rules with precision

Segment by supplier, brand, tags, and dynamic data so each rule matches how different product groups should compete.

03

Automate without losing control

Use scheduling, protection layers, and reporting to scale pricing decisions while keeping profitability in view.

How Rules Work

A guided rule builder designed for real ecommerce pricing.

Step 1

Name the rule clearly

Use clear names like `Nike T-Shirts - Match Market` or `Weekend Flash Sale - Clearance Stock` so large rule libraries stay manageable.

Step 2

Segment the right products

Filter by supplier, brand, product tags, and Pricemaster dynamic tags so one rule no longer has to fit your whole catalogue.

Step 3

Choose the market strategy

Define where you want to sit in the market, how aggressively you want to compete, and what commercial objective matters most.

Step 4

Schedule and let it run

Launch rules around dates, events, stock conditions, and campaigns so execution happens automatically instead of manually.

Segmentation

Build targeted pricing strategies instead of blanket rules.

This is where Pricemaster becomes much more powerful than standard repricers. You can combine supplier and brand data from Shopify and other integrations with your own product tags and Pricemaster dynamic tags.

  • Filter by supplier or brand for highly targeted rule groups
  • Layer product tags like sale items, T-shirts, or seasonal stock
  • Use dynamic tags such as Best Sellers, Highest Margin, Best Market Positioned, Aged Stock, and Drop-shipped Products
  • Stack segmentation so rules stay live as catalogue conditions change

Market positioning rules

Choose exactly where you want to sit in the market: cheapest, second cheapest, third cheapest, above or below a specific competitor, or relative to named retailers.

  • Match a specific competitor
  • Undercut by a fixed value such as £0.01
  • Stay 5% above market when brand position matters
  • Target named competitors like the Nike store

Flat margin and profit-led rules

If profitability is the priority, apply flat margin logic to targeted segments and let Pricemaster adjust prices automatically inside the limits you set.

  • Maintain target margins across defined product groups
  • Balance profitability with competitiveness
  • Keep margin protection built directly into the logic

Flash rules for speed

Sometimes speed matters more than margin. Flash Rules are built for aged stock, end-of-line products, seasonal clearances, and short-term promotional windows.

  • Override margin protection when necessary
  • Move to the cheapest position immediately
  • Run controlled aggression instead of uncontrolled discounting

Scheduling and date logic

Assign start dates, end dates, and timing rules so pricing launches and stops automatically around the campaigns you plan.

  • Weekend rules and Black Friday campaigns
  • Christmas promotions and stock clearances
  • No manual switching or missed timing windows

See daily market movement clearly

Log pricing changes and competitor movement so your team can see who moved, where pressure is building, and how the market is shifting over time.

Profit Centre

Connect pricing to commercial outcomes

Bring together revenue, profit, units sold, top products, highest-margin lines, and brand-level performance so pricing decisions stay tied to results.

Competitor Matching

Track competitors at scale

Run unlimited competitor analysis and matching so market-led rules stay grounded in live, relevant competition.

Protection

Minimum Margin Protection

Keep every automation inside a safe commercial floor, even when suppliers increase costs, markets drop aggressively, or bad data would otherwise hurt profitability.

AI Margin Miner

Test for pricing headroom

Push selected SKUs upward, watch whether the market follows, and lock in stronger margin where demand stays stable and competitor behaviour confirms space to move.

Execution

Bulk operations and live updates

Push instant price changes through API connections and let live rules update thousands of SKUs without losing control.

Ad Control

Google integration tied to product value

Control Merchant Center labels from Pricemaster so budget is pushed behind strong pricing positions and reduced where price confidence is weak.

Reporting

Turn movement into usable insight

Use competitor, margin, stock, and position reporting for trade planning, commercial reviews, and faster pricing decisions.

Built For Scale

From hundreds to huge catalogues

The system is designed for scaling retailers and brands that need structure, oversight, and real automation across very large product ranges.
