Discount strategy (stack vs best price)

When a customer qualifies for both a wholesale pricing rule and a volume pricing rule simultaneously, the app needs to know how to handle it.

---

Best price (default)

The app calculates the final price under each matching rule and applies the one that gives the customer the lowest price.

Example:

• Wholesale rule: 20% off → product costs $80
• Volume rule (buying 10+): 15% off → product costs $85
• Result: customer pays $80 (wholesale rule wins)

This strategy always benefits the customer.

---

Stack discounts

Both discounts are applied on top of each other.

Example:

• Wholesale rule: 20% off
• Volume rule: 15% off
• Combined: ~32% off → product costs ~$68

Use stack discounts carefully — the combined discount can be deeper than intended.
