Volume pricing: the more they buy, the less each one costs

Price breaks by quantity on unit and weight products. Buyers see the breaks on the product, so they know the price before they order.

What is volume pricing?

Volume pricing sets a lower price per unit when a buyer orders more. You decide the quantity breaks and the price for each one.

It works on unit products, such as a 1 kg pack, and on weight products sold by the kg. Buyers see the better price as they add more.

Customer bands: each group of buyers sees its own terms

Group customers by how they buy, such as wholesale and retail. Each band can have its own prices, delivery charges, minimum order and products.

What are customer bands?

A customer band is a group of customers who buy the same way. A retailer buying by the carton and a family buying one pack can shop the same store on different terms.

Each band can have its own prices, delivery charges and minimum order value, and you can keep some products for one band only.
