Rule 1 - reference unit
Picks 100 g / 100 ml only where the nominal quantity is 250 or less, otherwise 1 kg / 1 l, as PAngV section 4 requires.
Rule 2 - base price value
Prints the Grundpreis per that unit, VAT included, to two decimals, next to the figure shops print by mistake.
Rule 3 - base price displayed
Flags a listing that shows a pack price with no base price at all, the single most abmahnt price-display defect.
Rule 4 - 30-day reference price
Compares the struck-through price against your own lowest price of the last 30 days, which is the only lawful reference for a reduction.
Rule 5 - advertised percentage
Returns the largest percentage you may advertise and how many points your banner overstates it.
Rule 6 - total price and shipping
Flags a listing with no VAT-inclusive total price and shipping-cost notice, and totals the saving you cannot prove.

Questions people ask

What does this extension actually do?

It takes one product line - pack size, unit, the price you charge, the struck-through price you show, and your own lowest price of the last 30 days - and returns the base price Germany requires, the correct reference unit (100 g or 1 kg), the largest discount percentage you may legally advertise, and which of the 6 rules that line fails right now.

Who is this for?

Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy and Amazon sellers who ship to consumers in Germany or Austria, and the freelancers who maintain those shops. If a listing shows a price per pack, a struck-through price or a percentage off, the German Price Indication Ordinance (PAngV) applies to that listing even when your company sits outside the EU.

Why is a free unit-price converter not enough?

Free converters divide price by weight and stop. They print per 1 kg for every pack, so a 200 g jar at EUR 4.99 comes out as EUR 24.95 instead of the EUR 2.50 per 100 g that PAngV section 4 allows, and none of them compare your struck price against your own lowest price of the last 30 days, which is where a discount claim actually breaks.

What is free and what needs the key?

Free covers the whole calculation: all 6 rules, every pack size, unlimited product lines, no key, no cap, no watermark. The $60 licence adds a different axis - CSV export of a full catalogue check to hand to a developer or a lawyer, and a 30-day alarm that fires before a running promotion outlives its reference price.

What does the alternative cost?

German shop-law subscriptions that supply legal texts and price-display guidance run roughly EUR 10 to 50 per month, every month, and a single lawyer review of one campaign costs more than a year of that. This extension is $60 once, runs in the browser tab where you edit the listing, and sends no product data anywhere.
