Introduction

Incremental Pricing lets you define a step ladder of prices for the same package. The price a player sees depends on how many times they have already bought that package. After an optional reset window, the counter falls back to step 1.
Use it to discourage repeat farming (each subsequent purchase costs more), to reward loyalty (each next purchase is cheaper), or simply to push players toward variety in your store.
The step counter is per player, not global. Two different players each see the package at its Step 1 price for their first purchase, regardless of how many other players have bought it.

​
How It Works

  1. You define N steps for the package. Each step has either a fixed price or a discount % off the base price.
  2. When a player checks out, the platform counts that player’s previous completed purchases of this package.
  3. The next step in line is applied. After the last step is reached, every further purchase uses the last step’s price indefinitely.
  4. If a reset window is configured, completed purchases older than the window are ignored — the counter resets back to Step 1.
Gifts count too. A purchase counts toward the recipient’s counter, not the buyer’s, when the package is bought as a gift.

​
Configuring Incremental Pricing

1

Open the Package

Go to Packages in the sidebar and open the package you want to configure.
2

Switch to the Others Tab

Open the Others tab on the package edit screen.
3

Enable Incremental Pricing

Toggle Incremental Pricing on. The configuration panel appears.
4

Configure Steps

Click + Add Step to add a row. For each row, fill in either a Price in your store’s base currency, or a Discount % off the package’s normal price.
5

Set the Reset Window

Pick a Reset window value and unit (Minute / Hour / Day / Week / Month / Year), or choose No Period to make the escalation permanent.
6

Save Changes

Click Save at the bottom of the page.

​
Step Fields

The last step’s price is reused for every further purchase past the ladder. If you want unlimited escalation, add more steps.

​
Reset Window

The reset window is anchored to the last completed payment’s updated_at, not to a fixed wall-clock interval. A player who keeps buying within the window never resets; one who stops will fall back to Step 1 after the window elapses.

​
Regional Pricing per Step

If your package uses Regional Pricing, each step can also have its own per-region override. Click the globe icon next to the step’s price to configure country- or continent-specific prices for that step.

​
Behaviour in the Cart

  • The cart shows the next step’s price as the unit price for an authenticated player.
  • For guests (no username yet), the cart shows the Step 1 price.
  • For multi-quantity orders, each unit in the quantity may land on a different step: e.g. buying 3 when the player is at Step 2 charges Step 2 + Step 3 + Step 4.
Incremental Pricing interacts with Sales, Coupons and Perks. The step price is the base to which discounts are then applied, in the order configured by your discount-stacking rules.
