Smart Spending: A Guide to QUO Volume Discount Tier Pricing

Today’s dynamic eCommerce marketplace is continuously pressuring Shopify business admins to stand out from the crowd. For this, business owners have to be on a neverending hunt for new marketing strategies every day. The majority of the business admins turn towards adapting new digital marketing strategies, customer communication strategies, etc., and forget about the one interesting strategy, the pricing strategy.

Believe it or not, offering your products or services to your customers using different pricing strategies does play a pivotal role in making your business more successful. One such pricing strategy that is making headlines in the eCommerce world is tier pricing. In today’s blog, we will learn about tier pricing strategy, MageComp’s helpful Shopify app, QUO Volume Discount Tier Pricing, and its amazing features.

What is Tier Pricing?

Tier pricing is a type of pricing strategy that is used by businesses to present their products or services at distinct price points based on predefined pricing tiers. Specific quantities or ranges of product usage or service utilization determine these tiers, enabling businesses to cover a broad range of customers with different needs and budgets.

The core of the tiered pricing model is different from the fixed-rate pricing model. Unlike a uniform pricing scheme, where the same price is applied to the product or services, no matter what their consumption level is, tiered pricing segments the offering into multiple tiers. Each tier typically corresponds to a designated quantity or level of service, often accompanied by incremental benefits such as reduced per-unit costs or enhanced features as customers ascend to higher tiers.

By adopting tiered pricing, businesses can tailor their pricing strategy to better align with the varying requirements and preferences of their customer base. This flexibility empowers customers to select the tier that best matches their usage patterns and financial constraints while incentivizing higher levels of engagement or purchase through the allure of added value or cost savings available at higher tiers.

What is QUO Volume Discount Tier Pricing?

The QUO Volume Discount Tier Pricing is a Shopify app developed by MageComp, which allows its users to create different pricing tiers for quantities of the product. Implementing tiered pricing allows businesses to offer different price points based on predefined tiers or levels of purchase. This strategy can be applied to all products or specific collections within a business’s inventory.

By configuring rules or conditions, such as quantity thresholds, businesses can automatically apply discounts to encourage bulk purchases. These discounts can be structured in various ways, either as fixed amounts or percentages of the regular price. For example, customers buying larger quantities may receive a higher discount per unit, encouraging them to purchase more items at once.

One of the key benefits of tiered pricing is its potential to retain existing customers while attracting new ones. By providing attractive discounts for bulk purchases, businesses can reward loyal customers and entice new buyers to purchase more. This not only increases customer satisfaction but also fosters customer loyalty and promotes repeat business.

Functionalities of QUO

1. Creating Pricing Tiers

You can start creating the pricing tiers from the Dashboard section by selecting the Create Campaign button.

From this field, you can create a pricing tier by giving it a discount name, a tooltip (brief information about what it is), type of price (percentage-based or fixed amount), number of products to which the pricing tier is applicable, how much discount to offer, make it applicable to all products/collections or specific products/collections, set start and end date to the tiered pricing and also choose whether to benefit your customers with this tier pricing once in their lifetime or for a specific number of times.

Let’s understand this feature with an example.

Suppose you are a fabric wholesaler and have to apply tier pricing for your customers and create the tier pricing like this ?

Discount Title	FESTIVE Season Sale!
Price Type	Price Discount
Quantity	2	3	4	5
Discount (Percentage Type)	5%	10%	15%	20%
Apply to	To All Products
Start Date	27 Jan 2024
Set End Date	27 Feb 2024
Other settings (Limit the number of times this discount is applied in total)	3 times

Now, let’s look at some customers’ buying scenarios from 27 Jan 2024 to 27 Feb 2024.

Customer Name	Purchased Product Quantities	Outcome
Jack	Black Men’s Tie (2)	Jack will get a discount of 5%.
Julie	Lady Martha Skirts (3)	Julie will get a discount of 10%.
Thomas	Torino Men’s Pants (4)	Thomas will get a discount of 15%
Henry	Polo Men’s Vest (5)	Henry will get a discount of 20%
Paulina	Lady Roma Scarf (1)	Paulina will not get any discount on her purchase.

The same scenario is with the collections also.

Now, to understand the case when you have chosen to apply the tiered pricing to specific products only and chosen a fixed amount as a discount.

Consider the same example we used above, and you made certain changes. ?

Price Type	Price Discount
Quantity	2	3	4	5
Discount (Fixed amount Type)	$50	$100	$150	$200
Apply to (Specific Products)	Polo Men’s Vest, Arrow Men’s Shirt, Lady Martha Skirt

Taking a look at purchasing scenarios. ?

Customer Name	Purchased Product Quantities	Outcome
Tim	Black Men’s Tie (2)	Tim will not get the discount.
Robert	Arrow Men’s Shirt (3)	Robert will get a discount of $100.
Steven	Torino Men’s Pants (4)	Steven will not get the discount.
Linda	Polo Men’s Vest (5)	Linda will get a discount of $200.
Sarah	Lady Martha Skirts (1)	Sarah will not get the discount as her purchase is less than 2.
