volume discounts
Quantity-based price reductions
Volume discounts are price reductions offered when purchasing larger quantities.
The more you buy, the less you pay per unit.
Common in wholesale and business-to-business transactions, they incentivize bulk purchasing: We get a volume discount if we order five hundred or more.
Also called quantity discounts.
