Getting started

Most stores can show a volume price table on simple products in a few minutes. Tiers uses sensible defaults — enable tiered pricing, add rows, open a product page.

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”
  • WordPress 6.5 or newer
  • WooCommerce 8.0 or newer (HPOS and Cart/Checkout Blocks supported)
  • PHP 8.1 or newer
  • Simple products for the free edition — variable products and role-based tiers are planned for PRO

Install

Section titled “Install”
  1. Install WooCommerce and make sure it is active.
  2. Install Tiers from the plugin directory (when live on WordPress.org) or upload the tiers folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  3. Activate the plugin.

First configuration

Section titled “First configuration”

Open Tiers in wp-admin:

  • Enable tiered pricing — master switch.
  • Add tiers — each row is a minimum quantity and discount percentage (e.g. 5 units → 10% off, 10 units → 15% off).

On save, empty rows are removed, discounts are clamped, and tiers sort by quantity ascending. You can reorder mentally by editing quantities — the highest matching tier always wins at cart time.

Verify on the product page

Section titled “Verify on the product page”
  1. Open a simple product that should show tiers.
  2. Confirm the volume price table appears in the summary area (exact placement depends on your theme).
  3. Check that each row shows quantity, discount and the computed price preview.

The table is rendered on the server — no jQuery dependency for displaying tiers.

Verify in the cart

Section titled “Verify in the cart”
  1. Add the product with a quantity below the first tier — cart line should use the regular price.
  2. Increase quantity to meet a tier — line subtotal should reflect that tier’s discount off regular price.
  3. Jump to a higher tier — confirm the deeper discount applies, not a stack of both percentages.

If totals look wrong, confirm the product’s regular price is set and that no other plugin is overriding line pricing for the same product.

Tips for merchants

Section titled “Tips for merchants”
  • Start with two or three tiers — easier for shoppers to understand than a long ladder.
  • Use round numbers (5, 10, 25) in copy and in tier thresholds.
  • Pair the table with shipping or bundle messaging in your theme — Tiers only handles quantity math.

Free vs PRO

Section titled “Free vs PRO”

The free edition covers quantity tiered pricing for simple products and the server-rendered table.

Tiers PRO (planned) adds role and customer-group pricing, category rules, B2B wholesale and scheduled pricing — not basic tier tables.
