Live Pricing

Live Pricing is not a standard Searchspring Product offering. Talk to your Sales Representative to discuss adding this feature to your Service Plan.

Your store might be set up to use Customer Groups, with certain logged-in shoppers getting a discount applied on certain Products, showing those shoppers a different Price in the item results compared to other shoppers who might not be logged in at all. To achieve this Customer-Based Pricing in the item results, our Integration will need to use a Live Pricing script.

We can also leverage Live Pricing when constant updates to Pricing on your Products. Instead of waiting on Searchspring to index this Pricing change, Live Pricing can display the latest price point to your shopper.

Given a set of Product IDs for the current item results, your Live Pricing script would respond to Searchspring with the accurate Pricing for the currently logged-in shopper for those Products. The Searchspring Integration will then read in this script's response, updating the Prices shown in the results. This will bypass any Price assignments given in your core Product Feed, showing the shopper their true discounted Price.

Sample Response:

{
    "6489": { "price": 28.95 },
    "7609": { "price": 31.99 },
    "7615": { "price": 38 },
    "7631": { "price": 19.99 },
    "7732": { "price": 54.95 },
    "8100": { "price": 44 }
}

This Live Pricing script is strictly only used to change the Prices displayed in the item results. Any Price Filtering or Price Sorting will still be working off of the latest Price value indexed into Searchspring from your core Product Feed.
