How do I set up quantity discounts to attract bulk orders?
Quantity (volume) discounts should be managed directly in Seller Central. Here's an overview:
Business Prices and Quantity Discounts in Manage Pricing
You can edit business prices and quantity discounts in your listings.
From your seller account, select Pricing, then Manage Pricing.
If you do not see the Business Price column, click Preferences, then put a checkmark next to Business Price.
Click Save Changes.
To add quantity discounts, select Quantity discounts, then choose either Percent off business price or Fixed price.
For a Percent off business price model: Select Percent off business price. Enter quantity thresholds in the At least box. Enter a discount in the get box. For example, if you specify "At least 10 for 5% off", then a business customer who purchases 10 units will get a 5% discount off the business price. Click Set Prices.
For a Fixed price model: Select Fixed prices. Enter quantity thresholds in the 'At least' box. Enter a price in the 'for' box. For example, if you specify "At least 10 for $5.00", then a business customer who purchases 10 units will pay $5.00 each. Click Set Prices.
