Defining Scale Prices

Use scale prices to offer quantity discounts for selected products.

Lower prices are automatically applied when a customer orders larger quantities.

For each scale, you can define either a fixed price or a percentage-based discount.

By adding multiple quantity ranges, you can define different price tiers for the same product.

In OXID eShop, scale prices are displayed on the product detail page (Fig.: Displaying scale prices, item 2) when the customer selects the Block price button (Fig.: Displaying scale prices, item 1).

The price displayed in the shopping cart depends on the quantity specified during purchase.

Procedure

Define scale prices in the product management section.

  1. Choose Administer Products ‣ Products.

  2. Select the desired product from the product list.

  3. In the Stock tab, under Scale Prices, enter a quantity range and the corresponding price (Fig.: Defining scale prices, item 1).

    Example: For quantities between 5 and 10, the price is €33.99 instead of the regular price of €35.99 set in the Main tab.

  4. Save your changes and add additional scale prices using the same structure.

    Example: For all quantities above 10, the price is €30.

    Make sure the To field for the highest scale includes a sufficiently high value, such as 999999.

    Otherwise, the regular product price will apply if the upper limit is exceeded.
