02Features

What it does, what it doesn't.

Narrow scope, deep integration. We don't try to be a platform — we solve one problem well, on Shopify.

Four states, one config

The statutory per-unit fees for California, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Oregon ship with the app and update when the programs change them. You pick the collection; the destination state picks the fee.

Prescribed receipt labels

Each state mandates how the fee appears on the receipt — "Recycling Fee" in CA/CT/RI, "Stewardship Assessment" in Oregon. The fee line uses the right name per destination automatically.

Express-checkout reconciliation

Apple Pay and Google Pay can skip checkout customizations entirely. A server-side audit recomputes the expected fee on every order and flags any under-collection, so nothing slips through unnoticed.

Monthly report numbers

Retailers remit unit counts to the Mattress Recycling Council monthly. The dashboard tallies qualifying units sold per state per month — the numbers your MRC Fee Report asks for.

03In practice
