About this plugin
Set your margin once. Import your supplier’s price list. Get finished, well-rounded prices.
Cost & Margin Pricing calculates sale prices from your purchase prices — with support for purchase prices in foreign currencies, daily exchange rates, margin or markup rules, psychological price rounding and a recurring supplier price list import with a full change preview.
Built on WooCommerce core fields: the selected purchase cost is always written back to WooCommerce’s own Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) field, so Woo’s reports, exports and every third-party COGS integration keep working. No parallel cost fields, ever.
Safe by design
- Nothing is ever applied without a preview — you always see the change diff first
- Every run is journaled and can be undone with one click
- Manually adjusted prices are detected and never silently overwritten
- Locked products are always skipped
EU Omnibus ready
Marketing a price cut in the EU requires showing the product’s lowest price of the last 30 days — data WooCommerce does not keep. This plugin does: every price change is logged (including ones made outside the plugin), and each product’s 30-day lowest price is computed for you. Show it to customers with the “Lowest price (30 days)” block — or the [pihlcmp_lowest_price] shortcode — a discreet, theme-friendly line like “Lowest price last 30 days: 199 kr” that you can restyle or relabel.
For a variable product it shows the lowest price any of its variations had. Nothing is ever added to your storefront unless you place it yourself.

se for stores that need more: several suppliers per product with a cost strategy, master-list and Excel import, rules per category/supplier/product, margin-based sale prices, a margin floor, extra scheduling intervals with email reports, and margin/supplier reports. It is a different plugin with its own code — it is not unlocked from within this one.
