About Cody
Cody is still paying down its pricing trust debt, one discrepancy a merchant would have caught by hand.
Cody Store shipped six items in a single batch, and four of them exist because a shopper or a back-office system was told the wrong number. Sale prices differed between listing and product pages, spend-and-save offers were rendered as per-item discounts, BOGO rounding sent paid orders to OnTempo looking unpaid, and a countdown timer had quietly become dependent on an unrelated field. The two additions — per-promotion caption colours and undo in Page Builder — are small controls handed to merchants who previously filed a request.
