# Tiered Pricing
Tiered pricing is a strategy where the price of a product or service changes based on quantity purchased or usage level. The more a customer buys or uses, the lower the price per unit, but discounts are applied in discrete tiers, not continuously.
Tiered pricing rule setting
1. The Pricing ranges option allows you to import and export your pricing table to setting.
2. The **Count quantity by** option allows you to choose how the rule will apply to different types of product quantities.
Count quantity by options
* The **All together** option calculates the total quantity of all items in the cart, regardless of product type. It applies the bulk discount based on the combined total quantity. For example, 5 units of Product A and 3 of Product B would total 8 units, triggering the discount
* The **Item quantity in each cart line** option calculates discounts based on the quantity of each product in separate cart lines. Each product's discount is applied independently. For example, 5 units of Product A and 3 units of Product B will receive discounts based on their individual quantities
* The **Each single product/variable product** option treats each product variant (e.g., size, color) as separate items for quantity calculation. Discounts apply based on the quantity of each variant. For example, 3 units of "Small" and 4 units of "Medium" will receive separate discounts based on their individual quantities.
3. **Apply discount to only first matching product** option allows you applying the rule only to the first matching product in the cart.
Example 1: Buy 1 to 5 units for a 20% discount, and 6 or more units for a 50% discount. The rule applies only to the first matching product in the cart.
