Can I track Shopify product price changes over time?

Yes! ShopXray's price tracking feature automatically monitors and records price changes for every product in your tracked stores.

How price tracking works:

  • Every time ShopXray scans a tracked store (every 12-24 hours depending on your plan), it records the current price of every product variant

  • When a price changes between scans, ShopXray logs the old price, new price, timestamp, and percentage change

  • Price history is displayed as visual charts in your dashboard

What you can see:

  • Complete price history over time for any tracked product

  • Price drops (potential sales or clearance events)

  • Price increases (supply constraints, inflation adjustments, or testing)

  • Discount patterns (weekly sales, seasonal promotions, flash sales)

  • Compare-at price changes (showing when stores adjust their "original" prices)

Why price tracking matters:

  • Competitive Pricing: Know exactly when competitors drop or raise prices so you can respond quickly

  • Discount Intelligence: Identify competitor discount patterns (e.g., "they always run 20% off on Fridays")

  • Market Trends: Rising prices across multiple competitors may signal supply constraints or growing demand

  • Product Lifecycle: Falling prices often indicate end-of-life clearance — useful for timing your own product launches
