Master Pricing Settings: 2 Ways to Automate Your Product Pricing

Set pricing templates once. Push products with automated markups. Protect your margins at scale.

Note

In dropshipping, your purchase cost isn't the only number that matters. By the time a product reaches your customer, you’ve incurred transaction fees, currency conversion losses, and fluctuating supplier shipping rates. Manually calculating this for 100 products is unrealistic.

The Pricing Settings in DSers automates this math, ensuring that every single product pushed to your store hits your target profit margin.

Why Automate Your Pricing? (Stop Doing Manual Math)

The reality: You don't have a spreadsheet problem. You have a time problem. Every product you import needs a retail price. Doing that manually—calculating cost + shipping + fees + profit, product by product—takes minutes. Multiply that by 100 products, and you've lost hours to repetitive math.

This is why DSers offers Pricing Settings—a suite of automation tools that do the math for you instantly and consistently. Set your formula once. Then, every product you push to your store gets priced automatically. No calculators. No copy-paste errors. No double-checking.

Two Ways to Automate Pricing

When a pricing template is being created, two methods are available for selection.

1. Basic Pricing Rule (Free)

Best for: Beginners, niche stores, products with similar cost structures.

Applies a simple operation — addition or multiplication — to the product cost.

2. Advanced Pricing Rule (Paid Plans)

Best for: Scaling sellers, high-volume stores, precise profit control.

Uses a multi-factor formula considering profit percentage, fixed profit, shipping costs, platform fees, and taxes (Brazil only).

Two formulas determine the final price based on whether the calculated profit meets the Minimum Profit setting.
