Add a Dynamic Discount Table to Your Store

Sales, discounts, and revenue – words we all love to hear in the last 3 months of every year!

For most businesses, holiday sales season is the biggest time to hit the jackpot. They run discounts and promotional offers to attract new customers. And a smart business uses a discount table for all that!

The sales and shopping craze starts from Halloween and goes on till New Years. So if you’re looking for ways to give a little nudge to your sales, a dynamic pricing and discounts table might be a good idea for you.

These tables show the discount offers or special deals with/without the original price. It helps customers make purchase decision faster.

Why You Need a Discount Deal Table

Product pricing is the most crucial thing for a product-led business and the customer base.

When customers are informed about the pricing and discounts beforehand, it makes their purchase decision easier and leads to better sales.

Increased AOV

Even a simple pricing table can act as a discount table. Customers can see the amount they’re saving without having to calculate manually!

It’s a natural incentive to get them to add more products to their carts.

This transparency and the upfront discount offer leads to a higher average over value.

Better CX

Your customers don’t have the time to calculate the price differences or the discounted price. They’ll probably close the tab.

A price table with discounts states the original price and discounted price upfront. Customers can see it themselves and decide to purchase.

Clear pricing and discount offers leaves very little room for confusion and builds trust. People appreciate knowing what they’re in for if they buy a product.

When a pricing table shows the money they’re saving, it increases customer satisfaction and reduces cart abandonment rate.

Interactivity

Some deal tables in WordPress can be customized for interactivity using the right table plugin.

Here’s an example.

A potential customer can click the buttons to reveal the discount coupon code and visit the product’s site to apply and buy.

More bulk orders

Tiered pricing or special discount badges help B2B customers and wholesale buyers decide faster.

When the prices and discounts are clearly visible, they proceed to make bulk orders.

Bulk orders also increase if you’re providing bundle product discounts. Create bundles and set special prices. Check McDonald’s Happy Meal bundle as an example. Instead of buying hamburger, skimmed milk, yogurt tube, apple slices individually, customers buy the Happy Meal at bulk for $6.29.

Best for affiliates

If you’re an affiliate marketer, using discount or sale price tables can earn you the sweet commission you deserve!

Tables are not optional anymore in affiliate marketing. The audience engage and convert better from tables than long paragraphs with discount details.

Less customer inquiries

Customers get confused about pricing and value for money features. Your pricing and discounts table should show clear details about the original price, discount, and the features/service they’re getting.

This way, customers spend less time asking pre-purchase questions.

Examples of Dynamic Pricing and Discounts Table in WordPress

Any table you want to create in WordPress is possible with Ninja Tables.

You can display discount table, an offer table, or a deal listing table easily with this table plugin.

Check out some example tables and find what works best for you.

• Special pricing table
• “Click-to-reveal” table
• Discount and deal highlight
• Deal listing table
• Bulk-order discounts
• Role-based discounts
• Offer table with background image
• Time-sensitive discounts
• Product bundle discounts

Special pricing table

When you’re running a sale, the pricing tables are what your customers focus on more than separate deal pages (unless you’re running ads).

If you have a live pricing page with pricing table, it’s best to display the special price or discounted price.

Or you can show discounts in a tiered pricing table.

Go for the simpler three-column table like the following. As you can see, the middle column is highlighted so customers know the best price and value for money.

“Click-to-reveal” table

You can use this discount code table purely for interactivity!

The more interactive and responsive your pages are, the more engaged customers are. A click-to-reveal discount table can hide the discount coupon code initially and reveal it when someone clicks the button.

To make an interactive button in Ninja Tables, you only need a simple HTML.

<button onclick=”this.innerHTML='[Your Code]’>[Your Button Text]</button>

Apply this code to the column with “HTML” data type.

Discount and deal highlight

Of course, highlighting discount deals is the only to get customers’ attention. If your pricing table fails to do so, you can try a table that lists your deals and offers in one table and highlights the most important ones.

Besides, this table also takes our focus on the “Sale” column with a different color. Not to mention the fire icon basically tells you which offer is the biggest one.

Deal listing table

Many affiliates or websites that feature special holiday deals of other businesses can use this deal listing table.

A table like this shows details in a customized and interactive table. The product media or logo can be visible with the site link, discount coupon, sale duration, and action buttons.

It can be a little tricky to create for beginners. We have created this primarily by syncing Google Sheets to Ninja Tables and used a bit of CSS.

Give us a holler if you want to learn how to create it.

Bulk-order discounts

Configure your product table in a way that prices keep decreasing as customers keep adding more items to their cart. It’s perfect for incentivizing bulk purchases and clearing your inventory.

How about you try a table like that and tell us how it went?

Role-based discounts

Set up tables and segment special discounts according to various customer groups. For example, wholesale customer, VIP customers, and regular customers all getting different prices based on their interaction with your site.

Offer table with background image

Deals, discounts, and offers on a table can attract customers better than mentioning them in a boring text block.

But a table with background images takes it up another notch!

To apply this design to your Ninja Tables, just paste the following CSS with your table ID and the desired image from your WordPress media.

#footable_parent_NT_ID .foo-table{
background-image: URL(‘_____’);
}

***Must replace “NT_ID” with your auto-generated table shortcode.

The blank space inside the parenthesis is where the image link should go.

You can design your tables anytime according to the seasonal sale – Halloween, Christmas, or Valentine’s day!

Time-sensitive discounts

It does what the title says – highlighting discounts that are time-sensitive or short-term.

Tables like this one can trigger FOMO and encourage fast purchase. Since the discount offer duration is mentioned, customers will know what discount requires their quick action.

Product bundle discounts

A bundle offer or bundle discount is a tricky thing to execute. You need to know what products your customers often buy and if those products compliment each other.

For example, if customers are buying a laptop and a mouse separately with their individual price, you can offer them a bundle of these products at a reduced price.

If the total price of a laptop and a mouse is $1,050, their bundle price of $950 will obviously be more lucrative.
