“Price per Pound” feature lets you easily manage price per pound on your website!
The “Price per Pound” feature for Butcher Store Partners allows you to set a price per pound for your products to more closely match the in-store experience on your website.
For new products, you’ll go through the same steps in the dashboard: Dashboard > Products > Add a Product.
It doesn’t need to be an exact figure; an estimated amount will work.
For pre-existing products, you only need to change their “Sold By” method and fill out the same fields as above.
Until the Sell by Weight feature is released, a customer will have to select the quantity of a pre-determined amount as the workaround.
For example, if a steak is set at .5lb and the customer wants a full pound, they would need to select quantity=2
For products that are priced per pound, you only need to update the Total Weight, but you can also adjust the quantity and Price per Pound if needed.
Changing quantity multiplies the pre-determined weight of the product
Example: If a product is priced at $20/lb with a pre-determined weight of 1lb, then:
Quantity of 1: 1 pound x $20 = $20
Quantity of 2: 2 pounds x $20 = $40
Prices of items sold by weight are approximate and may vary due to changes in fair market value. So when your customer orders, we place an initial charge for the Estimated Price. The Total Price of their order will be calculated using our most recent prices, and a detailed receipt will be emailed to them. This email lets them know we are processing their order, and this is an estimated price.
Their credit card charge may be updated after the Total Price is calculated, and we may issue them a refund or adjustment charge based on the Total Price. So initially, their credit card will have a “hold.”
After the price is finalized, they’ll be charged on their credit card for the total amount. Once that happens, the customer will get a second email telling them their order is ready and this is the Total Price.
