How business defines Tier Price function?

Tier Pricing is a strategy in B2B business to encourage shoppers to buy larger quantities of a product by applying discounts based on the quantity chosen. These discounts may be “tiered” so that they increase as the order amount is raised. Other words, it is one of the boost-sales tools for the e-commerce industry.

Here is an example of a better illustration:

• Buy 2 to get 20% discount
• Buy 3 to get 30% discount
• Buy 5 to get 70% discount

Why use Better Tier Price extension?

Magento Default does support Tier Price, yet with a limited function. Admins can only choose the fixed final price to show in frontend. This makes visitors confused and cannot compare the discount amount between products. Also, customers have to add quantity manually, they do not have tier options to choose easily. Hence, a Better Tier Price add-on help online stores build a discount-by-quantity system with ease.

This advanced function provides more tier price types including fixed price, fixed discount amount and discount percent. Moreover, store owners can set the Tier Price Title. The appealing words such as “More for Less”, “Buy More, Save More” here will attract customers to see and consider those offers.

In addition to the above benefits, Better Tier Price can be visible to specific customer groups such as General, Wholesales, Retailers, Not Logged In ones. This function will be best to serve the customer segmentation of e-stores. There will be some different discount-by-quantity to various customer types. For example, only wholesales can have an option of discount 50% when purchasing 1000 items on your stores. With Better Tier Price, the option number is unlimited.
