How to Automatically Set Compare at Prices in Dropast

Dropast allows you to automatically calculate and apply a Compare at Price to your products when importing them from marketplaces. This feature helps you establish price anchors and show discounts in your Shopify store. Using a predefined or custom multiplier, Dropast will generate the Compare at Price based on the Shopify Selling Price.

This guide walks you through how to enable and configure this setting.


⚙️ Where to Set the Compare at Price Rule

  1. Go to Dropast Settings
  2. Click the “Product” tab
  3. Find the setting:

    [Compare At Price] [Shopify Selling Price]


🧮 How It Works

When this setting is enabled and configured:

  • Dropast will automatically calculate the Compare at Price each time a product is imported
  • The price is based on your Shopify Selling Price, multiplied by the factor you set

Example:

Setting Component Value
Shopify Selling Price $30
Compare at Price Multiplier 1.5×
Compare at Price $45

This results in a product that appears to be “on sale,” showing a regular price of $45 and a discounted price of $30 on your storefront.


🔧 Setting Your Multiplier

You can:

  • Choose a predefined multiplier (e.g., 2×, 3×, 4×)
  • Enter a custom multiplier based on your pricing or promotional strategy

📌 Note: Shopify requires that the Compare at Price must be higher than the Selling Price — make sure your multiplier reflects that.
