Simple quantity discounts for WooCommerce without a complicated pricing-rules engine.

1. Requirements

RequirementSupported
WordPress6.5 or newer
PHP7.4 or newer
WooCommerce8.0 or newer
Product typesSimple and variable products

2. Installation

  1. In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
  2. Upload the Live Bulk Pricing ZIP file.
  3. Activate the plugin. WooCommerce must already be installed and active.
  4. Go to WooCommerce → Bulk Pricing.
  5. Configure your quantity tiers and display settings, then save.

3. Quick Start

Create global minimum-quantity and percentage-discount tiers. For example:

Minimum quantityDiscountCustomer-facing range
35%3–5
610%6–10
1115%11+

The customer-facing ranges are calculated automatically.

4. Global Settings

Go to WooCommerce → Bulk Pricing. You can configure:

5. Per-Product Settings

6. Live Pricing

When a customer reaches a configured tier, the product page can show the original price, discounted price and percentage saved. The displayed price updates as the quantity changes.

7. Display Positions

Automatic placement supports:

Manual placement

For a custom product template or page builder, disable automatic placement and insert:

[live_bulk_pricing]

To display pricing for a specific product elsewhere:

[live_bulk_pricing product_id="123"]

8. Variable Products

Variable products are supported. The live product-page price follows the selected variation, and the same quantity discount is used when that variation is added to the cart.

9. Cart and Checkout Pricing

The plugin changes the WooCommerce cart item's unit price. The discounted price therefore continues through cart and checkout totals.

Important: Do not run Live Bulk Pricing alongside another plugin that also changes product prices based on quantity or dynamic-pricing rules.

10. Sale Prices

Bulk discounts are calculated from the active WooCommerce catalog price. If a product has an active sale price, the quantity discount is applied to that active sale price.

11. Coupons

Normal WooCommerce coupon behavior can apply after the bulk price according to the store's coupon configuration.

12. Theme Compatibility

The frontend pricing card uses standard WooCommerce product hooks and isolated CSS. Exact spacing can vary by theme. Highly customized product templates can use shortcode placement.

13. Unsupported Product Types

Version 1.0.0 officially supports standard simple and variable products. Specialized third-party product types such as subscriptions, bundles, composites, grouped products and external/affiliate products are not officially supported unless they behave as standard simple/variable WooCommerce products.

14. Data and Privacy

The plugin does not require an external service and does not send store or customer data to an external API. Settings are stored in the WordPress database.

15. Uninstall

Uninstalling the plugin removes its global settings and product-level bulk-pricing metadata.

16. Support

Support for marketplace purchases is provided through the WPBay support system.
