What are markups?
A markup refers to the percentage or multiplier added to the cost of your ingredients to determine the selling price. It's a common practice for businesses to markup their products to cover not only the cost but also to generate a profit.
The markup percentage can vary depending on factors like overhead costs, the level of competition in the market, and the desired profit margin. Curate offers flexibility with how you calculate your markups providing options that best fit your business. Below we will explain how to create and apply system markups.

Once you clicked + Add markup profile, you will have the option to select Multiplier or Percentage after you name the profile and enter the markup amount.
To delete a Markup profile, click the three dots "..." at the end of the row and Delete markup profile will be a selectable option.
