Need to create pricing dependant upon your customers' needs? Offering services that need to have fees built-in? We’ve got you covered with Custom Pricing rules.

With Custom Pricing rules, you can attribute actions (= x - +, etc) and $ values (1,2,3, etc.) to answers, and modify the total price for the submission.

You’re able to use logic to determine exactly what answers produce which prices.

You can also include a processing fee (fixed-price and/or percentage) to add on to the total.

Tip: If you want to achieve some seriously powerful dynamic pricing, you can do just about anything using Custom Pricing rules with a Calculation field (see related articles below for more on Calculation fields).

To configure Custom Pricing rules:

  1. In the form editor, go to Configure → Payments and toggle on "Custom Pricing Rules"
  2. If you like, include a fixed price or percentage fee to add on to the total.
  3. If you like, set a label for the Custom Pricing rules in the checkout. This label will be displayed next to the changes that have been made by calculations in the checkout experience.
  4. Add rules and configure them to behave in your preferred manner. You can add as many as you like, however, note that rules are applied in the order they are listed. The rules are made of two parts, a condition (when the rule will be used) and an action (what the rule does). The action is applied directly to the total price.

Tip: To add the answer to number questions or calculation results directly to the to price, you can do with the following set-up. This means that when the targeted question is answered, we're simply going to add its' answer to the total price. You could also subtract, divide or multiply the total price by that answer.
