The display format setting determines how the prices are displayed towards the customer.
Price display
This setting determines whether the prices are displayed in net or gross.
It has no effect on calculation and only determines what the customer sees.
For B2C cases you usually want to display them as gross.
Price input net/gross
This setting determines whether what you input in the price rules is to be considered as net or gross. For most B2C cases you would usually input them as gross.
If you set this and the "Price display" setting both to gross, then what you put in is what the customer sees.
If you set this setting to net and "Price display" to gross it would mean, that when you input a price of 100€, the customer will see 100€ * VAT rate.
So in Germany for example (with a 19% VAT rate) if your price template was to say 100€, the customer would see (and pay) 119€.
Usually you would only set it to net if your business is purely B2B.
Round prices
If you check this box, your prices will always round up, so 15,11€ will become 16€.
This is not just a visual change, the customer will actually pay 16€ and it will be your new effective price.
Usually we recommend not checking this box and instead setting up your prices in such a way, that you don't get cent prices in the first place.
Item Price calculation
This setting determines how the prices of individual items are displayed.
With the option "Accumulated sum of time" (which we recommend), the customer will simply see a number (let's say 250€).
If you were to set it to per calendar day for example, then the price of 250€ will be displayed as X€ per day. If the booking was 5 calendar days long and the item price would be 250€ total, then it would be displayed as "50€ per day".
Total Price calculation
Determines how the cart total is displayed.
The options here are:
Accumulated sum of time:
Recommended option for all rental businesses, which are not exclusively multi-month. For 95% of cases, this is the right choice.
Price per month:
Only works for multi-month bookings. This option divides the total sum by the amount of months and then displays it as "1734,77€/month.
Price per month (30 calendar days):
Same as Price per month, but defines the month (which to divide by) as 30 calendar days. This and the above option are only really relevant for cases like long term car rentals.
