Track prep costs and any other expenses that affect your profitability—all without worrying about integrations overwriting your data. Additional Costs gives you a dedicated field that stays exactly as you set it, while your integrations continue to update buy costs automatically.
To use:
Simply add any additional costs to your listings manually, via bulk Uploads, or through our API. Aura will automatically factor these into all pricing calculations and analytics.New
- Listings: Additional Costs field- Each listing now has a dedicated input for expenses beyond purchase price. Prep fees, etc—track it all in one place
- Listings: Buy Cost renamed- We've renamed "Cost" to "Buy Cost" to clearly distinguish between what you paid for the item and additional expenses
- Uploads & API: Additional Costs support- Update additional costs in bulk via Uploads or programmatically through our external API
- Integrations: Protected Additional Costs- Integrations will sync buy costs but never touch additional costs. Set it once and it stays
- Pricing & Analytics: Full cost visibility- All calculations now factor in both buy cost and additional costs. Wherever you see "Cost" in Aura, it's the sum of buy costs and additional costs.
For users who previously could not utilize any of our integrations because you were including additional costs in the Costs field for your listings, you can now utilize.
Please see our new support documentation for more details: Adding Additional Costs.
