Product Prices

Main Price Fields
In ProductCart you can specify multiple prices for a product. In the image shown below, you can see how this product has several different price levels associated with it. The first 3 apply to any product. They are:
  • Online Price- Enter the price you will be charging your retail customers. The online price is a required field.
  • List Price- Enter the list price for the product. This is an optional, but very useful field. If you enter a price here, then you can use the Show Savings feature described below. Note: make sure the list price is higher than the on-line price.
  • Show Savings- If you check the Show Savings option, your store will show your price, the list price (stricken through), and display the difference between them after the words “Online Savings:”. Prices are displayed below the product description.
  • Wholesale Price- This is also an optional field. The field defines the price that is displayed to wholesale customers and used to calculate their order totals. You can define which store visitors are wholesale customers when you add or edit a customer. See the section of this user guide dedicated to that topic for more details. Wholesale customers are automatically shown the wholesale price.
  • Cost- Another optional field that can help you calculate prices based on its value  and keep an eye on the profitability.
 
Additional Product Prices
ProductCart allows you to add unlimited other pricing levels to your store through a feature called Pricing Categories.


Here we want to draw your attention to the fact that can override the default prices for a pricing category at the product level, as shown in the picture above.
  • Leave the price field associated with any pricing category to 0.00 if you want to use the default price for the category, which will be shown after you save your new product (that's because ProductCart doesn’t know the price of the product yet when you are creating a new product).
 
  • Enter a value in the field if you want to override the default value for the pricing category. When you are using an Across the Board pricing category, the price for a product is set based on the settings that you have specified for the pricing category (e.g. 10% off the retail price). You can change the price at the product level using this field.
