Overview
Pricing Groups allow you to maintain consistent pricing for related products (SKUs) across all strategies. Instead of each SKU being priced independently, you can group them together and ensure they follow the same pricing logic.
This feature works with all pricing strategies, including:
Price Change
Dynamic Pricing
Promotions
Price Optimization
When enabled, SKUs in the same group will share a harmonized price, making it easier to manage variants (e.g., product sizes, colors, or bundles).
Key Benefits
✅ Keeps related products aligned with a single consistent price.
✅ Prevents illogical price gaps between variants.
✅ Works across all pricing strategies.
✅ Reduces manual effort – system automatically harmonizes prices.
✅ Custom groups can be created using Product Tags or the Custom Data Editor.
How It Works
Enable Pricing Groups – Switch on the toggle in the Pricing Groups tab.
Group By – Select the attribute that defines your group. Example:
Parent product ID(to group product variants together)Custom tags(if you want to group by a custom attribute)
Mode – Choose how products in the group behave:
Currently, all products in a group get the same price.
Aggregate Method – Select how the final price is decided if SKUs initially have different prices:
Average – Uses the mean of suggested prices.
Minimum – All products take the lowest price in the group.
Maximum – All products take the highest price in the group.
Mode – The most frequently suggested price (if tie → lowest price).
Median – Middle value of suggested prices.
4. Apply Rules – Decide when grouping applies relative to safeguards:
Before safeguards have been applied – Prices are grouped, then safeguards are applied.
After safeguards have been applied – Safeguards are applied first, then grouping harmonizes the final price.
Example Use Cases
Parent product with multiple variants: T-shirt in red, blue, green should have one aligned price.
Custom bundle pricing: Create a pricing group for SKUs tagged as “Starter Kit” to maintain consistent bundle pricing.
Q&A – Common Questions
Q: What if we want to price similar SKUs that are not matched to competitors the same way as matched SKUs?
A: Use Pricing Groups. Even if a SKU has no competitor match, you can group it with similar products and ensure they share the same price. This avoids price gaps between matched and unmatched SKUs.
Q: We have many small sets of SKUs that should be priced the same. Do we need to create hundreds of groups manually?
A: No, you don’t have to create them one by one. You can:
Use Parent Product ID if variants belong to the same parent.
Import Group IDs for bulk grouping.
Create custom groups via API or Custom Data Editor if you need very specific logic (e.g., by brand, name pattern, or RRP).
Q: We have 20,000 SKUs that should belong to micro-segments. Can we import that instead of manually assigning?
A: Yes. You can bulk-import groups using:
Product feed with GroupID column
API upload
Custom Data Editor for bulk editing
Q: What happens if a manual update conflicts with a Pricing Group rule?
A: The system will block conflicting updates to maintain consistency. However, authorized overrides can be allowed if business logic requires exceptions.
