retail pricing

Consumer purchase amounts

Retail pricing is the price charged to end consumers, as opposed to wholesale prices paid by resellers.

The term encompasses both the actual prices set and the strategies behind them: Their retail pricing undercuts competitors by ten percent.

Retail pricing decisions balance profit margins, market positioning, and consumer psychology—hence techniques like pricing at $9.99 rather than $10.
