Overage Pricing
Overage pricing is a typical model for transactional (usage-based) items (see Usage Data Billing). Usually, it combines a flat recurring amount with a variable amount.
The flat amount includes a certain quantity of units, and any quantity that exceeds the included is billed on top on a per-unit base.
To model this scenario, you create price tiers with the Split Quantity option set for the first quantity/price bracket:
| Tier | Quantity | Price | Price Type | Split Quantity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | 100 | 49,95 | Flat | |
| B | 0,50 | Default |
This would charge always the base price, irrespective of the actual usage. The base price includes up to 100 units, and any additionally consumed units are charged separately.
