Price Reductions
How price reductions are displayed
There are a variety of ways products can be discounted in Zen Cart:
- Using Specials or Sales
- Using Quantity Discounts
- Using an Order Total Module such as Group Pricing or Coupons.
- Since Zen Cart 2.0.0, using wholesale pricing.
Each of these results in a price reduction which is presented in a different way.
Specials and Sales display the reduced price on the listing and product info pages, with the original price shown in strikethrough:
Quantity Discounts show a reduced price on the shopping cart page and checkout pages as more items are purchased. Here’s a purchase of 1 item, at $15.
Here’s a purchase of 10 of those items, at $13.80.
Order Totals show a discount in the order summary on the checkout payment and checkout confirmation pages. The per-item price is not reduced.
