# How do I prevent price conflicts between marketplaces during sales?

**Multi-channel sales can quickly erode margins if prices aren’t controlled.**

During sales, marketplaces often run automated price matching.
 If Amazon drops a price, Flipkart may match it — sometimes without your consent.
 This can lead to:

- Margin erosion
- Broken MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) rules
- Angry retail partners

Manual price control becomes nearly impossible during multi-channel campaigns without automation.
