Price models
A price model determines how a price for a category or booking is calculated. Exactly one price model can be assigned to each category. A booking can consist of several items from different categories. The My Rental The app offers volume pricing models and tiered prices.
Volume pricing model
With the volume pricing model, prices can be set depending on the booking duration.
Example scenario:
The mountain bike category is assigned the price model below, with a tiered calculation. A customer rents two mountain bikes for 10 days. The price is calculated as follows:
- 10 (days) * 2 (units) * €12 = €240
- Total price: €240
| Tier | Price per unit of time (day) and tier |
|---|---|
| up to 7 days | €15 |
| from 8 to 14 days | €12 |
| 15 days or more | €10 |
Tiered prices
Alternatively, prices can also be calculated in tiers. This means that the rental period is divided into the price tiers. In general, this calculation leads to higher prices.
Example scenario:
The mountain bike category is assigned the price model below, with a tiered calculation. A customer rents two mountain bikes for 14 days. The price is calculated as follows:
- Tier 1: 7 (days) * 2 (units) * €15 = €210
- Tier 2: 7 (days) * 2 (units) * €12 = €168
- Total price: €378
| Tier | Price per unit of time (day) and tier |
|---|---|
| up to 7 days | €15 |
| from 8 to 14 days | €12 |
| 15 days or more | €10 |
