Understanding Specific Pricing

The System offers tremendous versatility with respect to setting the Selling Price. Apart from the Pricing Slabs, you also have the ability to set a Specific Selling Price for any Customer or Sub-Reseller. The Specific Pricing overrides the Pricing Slab based pricing for that Product. If you set a Specific Pricing for any of your Customers or Sub-Resellers, then irrespective of the Slab that your Customer or Sub-Reseller is in, the Specific Pricing will always be applied until you remove it.

Specific Pricing can be set for any Customer/Sub-Reseller from the Customer/Sub-Reseller Details view under your Reseller Control Panel:

  1. Login to your Reseller Control Panel from .
     
  2. Search for the particular Customer/Sub-Reseller for whom you want to set Specific Pricing for one or more Products.

    Reference:

    How to search for a Customer >>
    How to search for a Sub-Reseller >>
     

  3. Click on the Customer/Sub-Reseller Name to proceed to their Details view.
     
  4. Select the Product whose Pricing you wish to modify and click on the Pricing button.
     
  5. You will be presented with a page, where you can view your Cost Price along with generic Pricing Slabs. You may refer these while setting the Specific Pricing for this Product for a Customer/Sub-Reseller.
     
  6. Set the desired Pricing and click the Set Specific Selling Price button to save your changes.

    For instance, lets say you set the following Specific Pricing for your Sub-Reseller for Domain Name Service.

    USD New Registration

    USD Renewal

    USD Transfer

    In this case, no matter what the Total Receipts figure of the Sub-Reseller, he will always be charged USD 20 for Domain Name Registration/Renewal/Transfer. The Total Receipts figure will continue to be calculated, but not used for determining the Pricing for Domain Name Registration/Renewal/Transfer.

IMPORTANT

  • The prime motive of incorporating Specific Pricing as a feature for a particular Customer or Sub-Reseller is to give him/her a Lower/Higher Pricing than the standard Slab Pricing that he/she would have otherwise got.
     
  • In the event there is a Promotion running for a particular Product/Service then your Customer/Sub-Reseller would get benefit of the lower pricing, from amongst Specific Pricing and Promotion Price.
     
  • You can even set the Specific Pricing to zero (0). For example, if you set the Domain Name Transfer price for .COM domains as 0 for a particular Customer, then that Customer would be able to Transfer .COM domain names for free.
     
  • When you set the Specific Pricing to zero (0), an Invoice is still raised for that Product/Service but its value is zero (0). This is done only from the perspective of recording the transaction. Your Customer/Sub-Reseller is never asked to pay for this Invoice.
     
  • The moment you put Specific Pricing for a particular Customer or Sub-Reseller, the Slab Pricing will be ignored for that Customer or Sub-Reseller.
     
  • The moment you remove the Specific Pricing for a particular Customer or Sub-Reseller, the Slab Price applicable to that Customer or Sub-Reseller based on their Total Receipts figure will immediately begin to apply.
     
  • Specific Pricing is per Product per Customer/Sub-Reseller. This is important to understand. The Specific Pricing is set for a particular Customer or Sub-Reseller for a particular Product.
