# 📦 Set Tiered Pricing by Purchase Volume
Want to reward your bulk buyers and boost average order value? With our **Volume Pricing** feature, you can easily configure **tiered discounts** that automatically adjust pricing as customers add more to their cart — based on either **quantity purchased** or **total spend**.
## 🛠️ How to Configure Volume Pricing
### 1. **Enable & Navigate to Configuration**
Turn on the **Volume Pricing** module under **B2B Pricing**, then click “Configuration” to begin building your discount rules.
### 2. General Information
* **Name your rule** for easy reference
* Set **priority** (lower number = higher priority)
* Enable or disable the rule as needed
> If two rules conflict and have the same priority, the one created earlier takes precedence.
### 3. Assign to Customers
Choose which customers will see and benefit from your tiered pricing:
* Pick individual emails
* Use tags to group eligible customers (e.g. “wholesale”)
### 4. **Exclude Specific Customers (Optional)**
If certain customers should *not* benefit from this rule, exclude them here.
### 5. **Apply to Products**
Select which products or collections should be covered by your tiered pricing rules.
### 6. **Exclude Products (Optional)**
Exclude items you don’t want to apply discounts to (e.g. limited-edition products, services).
{% hint style="info" %}
Products/collections should be published to the Online Store to be able to apply the rule
{% endhint %}
### 7. Volume Pricing Type
Decide between **Quantity-based Pricing** or **Value-based Pricing**:
* *Quantity-based Pricing* applies discounts based on how many items are in the cart
* *Value-based Pricing* applies discounts based on the combined dollar value of items
You’ll also choose the **scope**:
* *Order-level* — entire order qualifies
* *Product-level* — discount applies per product
* *Variant-level* — discount per specific variant (e.g., size/color)
This could be confusing, so the further explanation will be in the **Example of a Quantity/Value-based Pricing rule in conjunction with the Apply to setting**
### **8. Define the Tiers**
Set your discount structure:
* **Fixed Price** — items meeting the threshold are sold at that fixed price
For example, you have 2 products priced at $10 and $12 to be chosen at Step 5. If you choose Fixed price and the Discount value is $8, both products will be $8 when the quantity/amount meets the criteria.
* **Fixed-amount Decrease** — subtract a fixed dollar amount
For example: Discount value is $2, then your products will be discounted from $10 to $8.
* **Percentage Decrease** — reduce price by a percentage
For example: Discount value is 20%, then your products will be discounted from $5 to $4.
You’re free to add multiple tiers. Once your setup is complete, click **Save**.
In Table style, you can choose among 9 table styles, which you can customize in [Design Table](https://b2b-solution.bsscommerce.com/qb/design-table/quantity-break)
* You can also preview how the table looks on the right-side corner
### 9. **Install / Apply Rule**

## 🔍 Real-World Example
Imagine you have two products — A and B — and you create discount tiers:
* **5 to 20 units** → “10% off”
* **21 to 50 units** → “20% off”
If someone orders **45 units total**:
* **Order-level** rule → Entire order gets 20% off
* **Product-level** → Product A (35 units) gets 20%, Product B (10 units) gets 10%
* **Variant-level** → Discounts applied per variant (e.g. size/color), based on individual variant quantities

#### đź›’ What Customers See on Storefront
* When shoppers meet a tier, the discounted price replaces the original automatically
* Quantities may “jump” to threshold numbers when clicked (e.g. clicking a tier label adjusts quantity accordingly)
* At checkout, the final tiered discount is applied
* When combined with **Custom Pricing / Price List**, the app prioritizes the Custom Pricing / Price List rules first
You can also click on the quantity range, and the quantity automatically jumps to the number:
{% hint style="info" %}
If you want the quantity to jump to the maximum number of the row, head to [Settings](https://b2b-solution.bsscommerce.com/qb/settings) (in the example, it's 100 instead of 20)
{% endhint %}
Here's the result on the Cart page:
{% hint style="info" %}
If you use Volume Pricing in conjunction with Custom Pricing or Price List, the app will apply the prices from the Custom Pricing/Price List rule first.
