Create a quantity-based price rule

Quantity-based price rules automatically adjust ticket prices as guests add more tickets to a booking, encouraging larger session bookings, filling sessions and increasing total booking value.

Setup is simple: offer a lower price per ticket as guests add more tickets. This “step-down” approach rewards guest behavior — the more tickets added, the lower the per-ticket cost.

Once applied, prices update automatically across checkout, POS and Venue Manager. No duplicate products. No constant updates. Set it once, apply it to your products and let ROLLER do the rest.

Why use quantity-based pricing

Use quantity-based rules when you want to:

How quantity-based price rules work

A quantity-based rule automatically adjusts the price per ticket based on how many tickets a guest buys for the same session or date.

Each rule uses tiers — price ranges that trigger new pricing as the booking quantity increases.

For example, if a guest adds a third ticket to their booking, the price per ticket instantly drops to the next tier.

You’ll configure these tiers when you create your rule, then apply the rule to one or more of your products, and set the actual prices for each tier.

How pricing appears in sales channels

Once your rule is applied to a product, pricing updates automatically everywhere — in online checkout, POS, and Venue Manager.

Check compatibility before you start

Make sure your product type and setup are supported before creating a rule.

• Works with: Session passes and standard passes (one rule per product).
   
  • Quantity-based rules don’t apply to products with group ticket variations (eg Family of 4) because group tickets are a single bundled price, not per ticket.
  • Quantity-based pricing applies only to tickets for the same product, date and session time — tickets across multiple sessions in the same booking don’t combine toward tiers. 
  • You can choose to count any variation (eg Adult + Child = 3 tickets) to reward total session size or a specific variation (each ticket type counts separately) to apply the discounted pricing tier by ticket type.
     
• Not currently supported with: Packages (package pricing overrides price rule), discounted consecutive sessions, legacy checkout and self-serve kiosks.

Step 1: Create a quantity-based price rule

Define how your tiers work and how tickets are counted.

1. From Venue Manager, go to Products > Price rules > Create price rule.
2. Select Quantity-based pricing.
3. Enter a name for the price rule (eg Buy More and Save Admissions).

4. Choose how tickets are counted to qualify for discounted tiers:
    

   • Any variation – counts all ticket types together to reward total session size
     Example: 2 Adults + 1 Child = 3 tickets qualify for “3+” price.
   • Specific variation – counts each ticket type separately to apply discounts by ticket type
     Example: 3 x adults qualify for 3+ price; 2 Adults + 1 Child don’t.
      
5. Add your quantity tiers — the ticket ranges that trigger different prices. Keep tiers simple — two or three is usually enough. For example:
    
   • 1–2 tickets
   • 3–4 tickets
   • 5+
     
     
      
6. Select Save.

Your rule now appears in the All rules list, ready to be applied to a product. You’ll enter the actual prices for each ticket type per tier in the next step.

Step 2: Apply the rule to products and set prices

Once your rule is created, apply it to your products and set prices for each tier. This makes the price rule and new pricing available on products.

1. From Venue Manager, go to Products > All products.
2. Search for and select the session or standard pass product you want.
3. From the product’s details section, select your quantity-based rule from the price rules drop-down.
   
   
4. For each ticket variation (eg Adult, Child), enter the price per quantity tier (eg Adult $32/$28; Child $27/$24).
   
   
5. If you use minimum ticket requirements (eg two-player minimum), set this in Additional options › Purchase limits.
6. Select Save.

Your price rule is now available. Guests and staff will automatically see the correct price once the booking reaches the qualifying quantity — no promo codes, no manual updates.

Test and refine your setup

Once your rule is linked to a product and available, do a quick check to make sure everything’s working as expected.

Test your pricing

• Checkout: Preview your checkout, and add tickets to the product until you reach the next tier. The per-ticket price should update instantly.
• POS or Venue Manager: Create a test booking and change the ticket quantity — the price adjusts automatically when the threshold is met.

Refine your approach

• Start with one product and 2–3 tiers first.

• Make the biggest saving at your highest tier to encourage full sessions.

• Highlight savings in product descriptions or marketing (eg “Bring 5 friends and save”). Savings are highlighted automatically in checkouts.

Manage quantity-based price rules

You can view, edit, or reuse your rules anytime in Venue Manager.

1. Go to Products › Price rules > All rules.
2. The table shows every rule, its type and the products it’s applied to.
3. Select a price rule to view and edit it.

Rename a rule

Rename anytime to clarify purpose (eg Buy more and save (5+/7+)).

Edit or delete tiers

You can only edit or delete rule settings (like tiers or counting method) if it’s not applied to any products.

To make changes:

1. Remove the rule from all products (switch those products back to Fixed price in the product setup).
2. Return to Products › Price rules > All rules to view and edit, or delete it.

Update prices in applied products

Adjust prices per quantity tier in the product’s variations table at any time. Changes apply to new bookings only (existing bookings keep original prices).
