Tier pricing
Tier pricing is used when prices should change based on the quantity and the price changing is not a part of any discount.
For example 1 item the price is 10 SEK, if you buy 10 or more the price will be 8 SEK instead.

Tier prices and discounts
A product is considered to have a tier price if any of the price lists valid for the visitor has tier pricing for the article. The following discounts do not work if the product has a tier price:
- Buy any X products, get discount on the cheapest
- Buy X of the same product, pay for y
- Reduce product price by percentage/ number
- Set a discounted product price
Tier price API support
The price list article entity in Litium Studio is updated with a MinimumQuantity property that contains the minimum quantity needed to be purchased in order to get the discount. With this logic, it's possible to build advanced price logic that finds the correct list price for the specific quantity of the product. Tier prices are used as list prices when applying the discount so the discount price is calculated on the tier price.
