Description

LXIT Profit Insights for WooCommerce gives store owners clear visibility into the profitability of their WooCommerce store. By tracking the cost of goods (COGS) per product and variation, the plugin automatically calculates gross profit and margin per order.

A built-in reporting dashboard provides actionable insights into revenue, costs, and profit over time — helping merchants make informed pricing and purchasing decisions.
