Overview #
Adding the wholesale functionality to your eCommerce business can multiply your shop’s revenue and reduce your sales hassles. However, customers (retailers) buying your shop’s items would want extra discounts. It also makes a feasible choice to attract more retailers or resellers.
For example, you can offer a 10% discount on 100 toasters, an 8% discount on 150 toasters, a 10% discount on 200 toasters, and so on. The WooCommerce Wholesale Pricing plugin is all that you need for this.
How? Install Booster for WooCommerce Plugin and activate its Wholesale Pricing feature. The setup will be compatible with your WPML configuration, too. So, your multi-branch e-shop can avail of its advantages without much effort.

How to Disable Wholesale Discount in the presence of Other Discounts? #

WPML Settings #

Discount Price Calculation #
The total discount for the wholesale prices is calculated as per these settings. For the Template variables, you may choose to consider or neglect the quantity.
1.The value of Discount Value – Fixed Discount Totals specifies how to calculate the total amount when the fixed discount method is applied.
Example: If the discount for a t-shirt is $5 in wholesale pricing and you’ve selected Do not Consider Quantity, the buyer will get $5 off on his purchase, no matter how many t-shirts he purchases. However, if your choice is Consider Quantity, this discount will work on a per-item level. So, if a buyer orders 20 pieces, he will get a discount of $100.
2. The value of Discount Value – Price Directly Totals specifies how to calculate the total amount when the fixed price directly is in use.
