- Fixed price — Override a product’s price to a specific amount; choose to apply to all matching items, the cheapest, or the most expensive. Option to always set the price or only when it is a genuine discount.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a free alternative to YITH WooCommerce Dynamic Pricing & Discounts?
Yes. Dynamic Pricing & Discount Rules for WooCommerce provides the core dynamic pricing features found in premium plugins — tiered discounts, BOGO, role-based pricing, cart promotions, free shipping rules, and free gifts — completely free with no pro plan required.
Does it support bulk / quantity-based discounts?
Yes. The Tiered pricing discount type lets you set different discount percentages or fixed amounts per quantity range. For example: 5% off for 2–4 items, 10% off for 5–9, 15% off for 10 or more.
Can I offer different prices to wholesale or B2B customers?
Yes. Use the User role condition to restrict rules to specific roles (e.g. Wholesale, B2B, Subscriber). Combine with any discount type to give role-based pricing without a separate plugin.
How does rule priority work?
Each rule has a numeric priority. The engine applies the highest-priority rule that matches the current cart and customer. Only one discount message is shown on product and shop pages — the one rule the customer will actually receive.
Can I schedule discount rules to run during a specific date range?
Yes. Every rule has an optional schedule with a start date, end date, and optional days of the week. Use it for flash sales, seasonal promotions, or recurring weekly deals.
Does it work with variable products?
Yes. Rules apply to the matched cart items regardless of whether the product is simple or variable. Both product-level and cart-level discounts work with variable products.
Can I exclude certain products from all discounts?
Yes. The Global Exclusion List (under Pricing Rules → Exclusions) lets you exclude specific products, categories, or tags from every rule at once. You can also add per-rule exclusions in the rule editor.
Will it conflict with WooCommerce coupons?
Rules and coupons work independently. You can use the Coupon applied condition to fire a rule only when a specific coupon is present, or run rules without coupons entirely.
Can I show the discount on the shop / archive page?
Yes. Enable “Show on shop” in the rule’s display settings. A compact badge appears under the price on the shop/archive listing. On single product pages, the full discount message appears automatically.
Is the plugin compatible with WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?
Yes. The plugin declares compatibility with WooCommerce custom order tables (HPOS).
Where can I get support?
Open a thread on the WordPress.org support forum. We respond to every thread.
Changelog
Adds a new Fixed Price discount type and a fully redesigned rule editor. No database changes — fully backward compatible. Existing rules continue to work without any action required.
1.2.0 – 2026-03-26
- Added
fixed_pricebenefit type: set a product’s unit price to an exact amount instead of applying a percentage or fixed reduction. apply_tooption controls scope — apply the fixed price to all matching products, only the cheapest, or only the most expensive item in the cart.forcetoggle: when off (default) the rule only fires if the fixed price is lower than the original (discount-only mode); when on, the price is always overridden regardless of the original.- Session-based original-price restore is applied so the fixed price stacks correctly with other rules and never double-applies on recalculation.
- Product-page badge shows “Special price: $X.XX” for rules of this type.
