Pricing Hierarchy

❗️

Pay Attention*

If you adjust the price within the configuration, this will not retroactively adjust.

• If the Item base price is update, any existing setup will not update to that new pricing
• If the Offer base price is updated, any existing setup will not update to that new pricing
• If the Campaign Item Offer Price is updated, this new pricing will be utilized on the next sale

Default Item Pricing

A default price is setup at the time the Item is created. This is automatically applied to any Sales Channel and Offer setup.

This default price will be used anytime an Item is added to a Campaign and associated Offer.

If an Item has Variants, a default Price may be set per Variant:

Unique pricing per Offer

The default price can be easily overridden to meet your selling goals.

Reasons to override the default pricing:

• Subscribe and Save
• Prepaids
• Gifts

Example:

I am selling a Beard Oil for $10. I am selling this as a one-time sale and I have two recurring options: Monthly or 3 Month Prepaid. I want to sell it as a subscribe and save 10%, so I will have my One-Time offer use the default price of $10, but I will update my Monthly and 3 Month Prepaid offer to be $27
