Hi,
In that case everything is peachy :-D - You can use one store and customer pricing categories.

Well, the store is wholesale only.
So to get pricing the customers will have to login.

I have considered separate stores but the catalog is exactly the same for both countries but use the same inventory. So that seems I would have to duplicate all the work. Can two stores work off a single database, effectively?

The prices are different due to import costs and slight currency differences.]]> Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:28:33 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17175.html#17175 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17174.html#17174 Author: Hamish

Hi Josh,
  I suspect the easiest solution is separate stores :-) !!
  Are you talking about different prices but in the same currency? If not, ProductCart doesn't support multi-currency. What abouts taxes? 
It does support customer pricing categories, but a customer needs to be logged in to have a pricing category assigned. I'm fairly sure it would be possible to write custom code to auto-assign a "pricing category" - but what would it be based upon? IP Address lookup? Clicking on a flag?   How can you prevent customers seeing the other prices? - They are likely to always choose the cheapest option - or go elsewhere because they perceive the price available to them is more than it is available to others.
Enough of the devils advocate stuff :-)
Can you elaborate a bitmore on the requirement?

So I am thinking that I could duplicate the check out process: One for the US and one for Canada. Each country has it's own credit card processor. So it would need to be processed from the correct cc portal.

Or is there a more simple solution??]]> Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:15:20 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17171.html#17171 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17138.html#17138 Author: joshs

Well the store product line is identical. The pricing is different because of customs and exchange rates.]]> Mon, 21 Mar 2011 11:07:21 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17138.html#17138 https://forum.productcart.com/pricing-for-multiple-countries_topic4375_post17132.html#17132 Author: Matt

If the pricing is different, then it is likely the graphics will be as well. So I think the best solution is to setup separate stores for each country.  They can use the appropriate domain extension for their country (e.g. co.uk, com, or ca) and be branded properly. If you only needed to display the price differently using the conversion rate I may have suggested something else.

I need to set up pricing for US, Canada, and some Caribbean Countries.

Each will be priced differently. The store manager decides the pricing based on some model and voodoo.

Any suggestions on how to set that up effectively with in a PC4.1 store?

Thanks
