You can use volume discounts to lower the price of a product/service when more than one unit of the same product/service is purchased.
When a volume discount is applied, a wholesale price section becomes visible showing the new price of the product/service based on the quantities purchased, and the regular price is struck through.
Note: If you have applied a special price, the wholesale price will be applied to the special price, not the original price. The product/service will be discounted twice:
the special price discount will be applied; then
the volume discount will be applied.
Linking volume discounts to products/services
Navigate to the Seller dashboard. From the LH menu, select Promotions>Volume Discount.
To add a new volume discount, click the button in the top RH corner.
Configuring the Bind volume discount form
Select/search for the product/service from the list that you want to apply the volume discount to. If you have product/service variants, each option value you added as inventory will be available so you can add volume discounts to those variants.
Enter the minimum quantity the discount applies to and the discount %.
Important: Watersorted is configured to show the price of a product/service exclusive of GST (if sales tax is applicable) on the front end of the shop. This means that any discounts applied will be to the amount excluding GST, not the gross.
