What you receive

  • Recomputed discount-sales share from supplied base, promotion, and total sales
  • Gross and net contribution if every promotion sale were incremental
  • Break-even gross margin and the discount cost as a share of promotion sales
  • An optional comparison-period incremental sales and contribution check
  • A stable review queue plus promotion-type and status summaries

Who it is for

eBay sellers, agencies, and finance teams sanity-checking Discounts Manager results before a human keeps, changes, or ends a promotion.

Delivery: usually a structured result, workbook, or ZIP depending on the tool.

How it stays safe

Friday calculates only from the eBay discount summary and unit-economics fields you supply. It reads no eBay account, API, report, order, listing, or buyer data and verifies no field. Reported sales lift attributes promotion-window sales to the discount but does not prove they were incremental; contribution here subtracts only the supplied discount cost and is not net profit. Friday does not publish listings and never creates, changes, pauses, resumes, or evaluates the compliance of a discount, promotion, or listing. A human must verify attribution, returns, fees, and the live report.
