How Supplier Monitoring Works

Repricefy monitors 40+ retail suppliers every 2–6 hours. When your supplier's price changes or a product goes out of stock, we know — and we act automatically.

What we monitor

For every supplier product you've linked:

  • Price: current selling price on the supplier's website
  • Stock status: in-stock, out-of-stock, or limited availability
  • Price history: track how the price has changed over time

How it works

  1. You add a supplier URL to a product (e.g., a Walmart product page)
  2. Repricefy checks that URL on a schedule:
    • Free plan: every 6 hours
    • Starter: every 4 hours
    • Pro: every 3 hours
    • Scale: every 2 hours
  3. When something changes, Repricefy takes action automatically

What happens when the supplier price changes?

When your supplier's price goes up or down:

  1. Your product's cost is updated in Repricefy
  2. Your floor price is recalculated based on the new cost
  3. The repricer adjusts your Amazon price on the next cycle
  4. You get a notification on your dashboard

Example:

  • Supplier cost was $19.99, now it's $22.99 (+$3)
  • Your old floor: $28.50 (15% margin)
  • Your new floor: $32.00 (15% margin on higher cost)
  • If your Amazon price was $30.00, the repricer raises it to $32.00

What happens when the supplier goes out of stock?

This is one of Repricefy's most important features:

  1. We detect the supplier product is out of stock
  2. An OOS alert is created on your dashboard
  3. You receive an email notification
  4. For FBM listings: your Amazon quantity is automatically set to 0

This prevents you from selling products you can't fulfill. When the supplier restocks, we detect that too and can restore your listing.

FBA listings are NOT zeroed. If you use FBA, your inventory is already in Amazon's warehouse. Supplier OOS doesn't affect your ability to fulfill orders.
