The Bulk Pricing Updater Tool offers store owners a quick and easy way to apply, update, and delete bulk pricing rules on items.  BigCommerce supports three different types of bulk discounts: a set selling price, a percentage off, or a dollar value off, all of which can be applied with this tool via a CSV file upload.

It’s important to note that BigCommerce does not support bulk pricing on variants, unless you are using customer groups and price lists.  In that case, you would need to use our Price List Bulk Pricing Updater to apply bulk pricing rules to variants.

To begin, launch the Bulk Pricing Updater Tool from the tile on the Your Store Tools dashboard.

 

Select your CSV file and click Next.

Map the columns in your CSV file to the appropriate fields, then click Next.

 

By default, Your Store Tools will provide a notification on the dashboard as well as a notification via email when the job is complete.  If you choose not to receive a notification via email, you can turn this option off on this screen, or change the email address it will be sent to.

Once your selection is made, click Submit to finish.

Our tool also allows you to remove bulk pricing tools from items using the same CSV you created the pricing with.  To remove bulk pricing, simply use the word delete as the amount value in your file, as shown in the example below:

In this instance, the bulk pricing values would be removed completely from SKU PR5678.

By accessing the stacked menu in the upper right corner of the tool's tile from the dashboard, you can access the following:

  • History - a list of the last 7 days of processing history for this tool.
  • Help - a link to this support document.

This additional schedule, allows you to do the following:
