 Storefront > Version 5 Modules > Discount Modules (version 5) > Volume Pricing

Discount your product prices based on the number of items ordered of identical products, eg 1-3 = standard price, 4-6 = lower, etc.

The admin interface provides an easy to enter "from - to cost" format. You can literally have as many ranges as you want to type in. See the image below for example syntax. You can either use actual values or percent of price to be subtracted from the product price. These price differentials are added directly in the admin interface under the product edit screen. You only apply these price differentials in the products that you want to use them.

This module ignores price groups. It applies the price in your low, high, cost groupings. If you do not include a grouping at the single item level, it will use the method for pricing in your store. It only activates if you include a low, high, cost grouping.

The percentage discounting method subtracts the percent discount from the price. To apply the percentage, simply include the percent symbol (%) in the line. If you are using cost method for your store, you will not be able to use the percentage discounting method. Instead, use the actual value method.

If you are using another third party module which overrides prices in the basket and recomputes them using the price in the product record, you will not be able to use this module. Other third party modules will not recognize that it needs to apply the calculations in this module.

The module recognizes identical products. Hence different attributes will change the product enough that the discount won't apply. For example 3 red shirts and 6 blue shirts will not give the discount of 9 shirts. Rather, they'll get the discount rate of 3 for one of the line items and 6 for the other. If you need the additional functionality of almost the same line item, contact me as I may add it to the future feature request list.

You can optionally include a table on the product (PROD) and category (CTGY) screens displaying the rates as generated from the products' volume discount record. You can see an example of that in the Software main category. You can optionally have a quantity input in that table display. These options are configured through admin.
