Pricing Model |
Description |
How it Works |
Standard
|
Flat rate per unit regardless of quantity. All units cost the same.
|
Per Unit price: $5
-
If a customer purchases 1 unit, they would be charged $5.
-
If they purchased 20 units, they would be charged $100 (20 x $5)
|
Tiered
|
While prices are still based on a per-unit basis, every unit used is assessed a cost within its own tier

-
If a customer purchases or consumes 17 units, they would be charged $2 per unit for the first 10 units, plus $1 per unit for the next 7 units, for a total charge of $23 (ex. (10 x $2) + (7 x $1))

Volume |
Volume pricing ranges are used to determine the unit price for ALL quantities.

Stairstep

Multiple price brackets are defined, but the pricing is given as a total cost for the whole bracket instead of per-unit costs.
