Profit Bandit

Profit Bandit is a mobile app designed for retail arbitrage sellers. The app scans product barcodes using a phone camera or Bluetooth scanner and instantly calculates potential profit after all Amazon fees including referral fees, FBA fees, and estimated shipping costs.

The scan results show current Amazon selling price, sales rank, number of competing sellers, and net profit at the target buy price. Sellers can set minimum profit and ROI thresholds, and the app flags products that meet their criteria. The cost accounting includes prep fees, shipping to FBA, and other variable costs.

For arbitrage sellers who scan products in retail stores, Profit Bandit provides the instant profitability data needed to make buy/pass decisions on the spot. The app has been a staple in the arbitrage community for years. Its strength is speed and simplicity. Sellers can evaluate a product in seconds and move to the next one without complex analysis.
