Shopify is adding additional cost to all my products

[jovantperic]

Hi to all. Recently when I was setting up my store, I remember there was a function where I was able to increase the price of all my products in my store for 5%.   Well, it turns out every time I add another product, Shopify will automatically increase the price of that item for 5%. When I check the item description, the price of the item will show the original price I entered. The increased price is only visible on online. The best part is that I forgot what I did so I can disable this "Automatic Price Adjustment".  It looks like this might be a useful as a markup adjustment across all items in the store. Please help. Thanks

Hi, @jovantperic!

Thank you so much for reaching out with your question.

Marking up a product's listing price by percentage is not a default option within the Shopify Admin, which helps us narrow down where you may have made the changes. More than likely, the culprit here is an app that you are using to either import product data or manage them. 

Dropshipping apps typically have these options to help merchant's solidify their margins and create a buffer for cost of goods sold vs profit. Have you looked at apps that have access to your products from Admin > Apps to narrow down the root cause? 

If you're unsure which it could be, let us know how you're importing product information so we can help you narrow it down further.

Warm regards,

I found it... It is an option to adjust the price based on the Market. Navigate to Settings > Markets > click on your market > Products and Pricing > Price Adjustment. You will see an option in drop down to Price Increase or Price decrease and you can set the value in percentages.

Ah, that makes complete sense. Thank you for updating this post with that, @jovantperic.
