ParityVend: Country-Based Pricing for Beginners: Reach Customers WorldwideParityVend: Country-Based Pricing for Beginners: Reach Customers Worldwide

Have you ever wondered how much people in different countries pay for the same product or service online? For example, how much does a Netflix subscription cost in India compared to the US? Or how much does a Spotify Premium account cost in Brazil compared to Germany? 

You might be surprised to find out that the prices are not the same, but vary depending on the customer's location. This is because many online businesses use a pricing strategy called country-based pricing to adjust their prices for different markets.

Digital products have opened up new opportunities for businesses to sell their products or services to customers all over the world, regardless of physical boundaries or distances. However, it also poses a challenge of setting a fair and optimal price for different markets, as customers in different countries have different levels of income and purchasing power. 

If a business charges the same price for everyone, it might lose potential customers who cannot afford it. Therefore, many businesses use country-based pricing to adjust their prices based on the customer's location, using factors such as currency exchange rates, purchasing power, local demand, and competition.

What is Country-Based Pricing?

Country-based pricing is a pricing strategy that involves changing the price of a product or service depending on where the customer is located. For example, if a customer in the US visits a website that sells e-books, they might see a price of $9.99 for an e-book. However, if a customer in India visits the same website, they might see a price of $4.99 for the same e-book. This example shows what country-based pricing might look like by taking into account the differences in the economic contexts of different countries.

Country-based pricing is based on the idea that customers in different countries have different levels of purchasing power. It is not only about local salary level or the cost of goods, but also about other factors that affect the demand and value of a product or service in different markets, such as local competition, taxes, regulations, and customer preferences. For example, a video game might cost more in a country where it is popular and has many competitors, than in a country where it is less popular and has fewer competitors. Similarly, the software might cost more in a country where it is subject to higher taxes or stricter regulations than in a country where it is subject to lower taxes or looser regulations. Likewise, a product or service might cost more or less in a country where it matches or differs from the customer's preferences, such as culture, language, or style.

Why is Country-Based Pricing Important?

Country-based pricing can bring many benefits for businesses that want to sell their products or services online to customers around the world. Here are some of the main advantages of using country-based pricing:

  • Reach more customers: One of the biggest challenges of selling online is reaching customers in different markets, especially in emerging or developing countries, where customers have lower incomes and higher price sensitivity. If a business charges the same price for everyone, it might lose potential customers who cannot afford it, or who might find it too expensive compared to other options. 

By adjusting prices to match the local purchasing power, businesses can make their products or services more affordable and accessible for customers in different markets, and attract more customers who might otherwise not buy from them. This can help businesses expand their customer base, enter new markets, and increase their brand awareness and loyalty.

  • Increase sales: Another challenge of selling online is increasing sales and revenue growth, especially in competitive and saturated markets. If a business charges the same price for everyone, it might leave money on the table by undercharging customers who can pay more, or who might perceive the product or service as low-quality or low-value. 

By adjusting prices to match the local purchasing power, businesses can charge the optimal price for each market, and increase their sales and revenue growth. Lower prices in certain markets can lead to more sales and more customers, while higher prices in other markets can lead to more revenue and more profit. 

  • Fair and competitive: A third challenge of selling online is maintaining a fair and competitive edge in the global market, especially in markets where customers have different expectations and preferences. If a business charges the same price for everyone, it might face backlash or criticism from customers who feel that they are being overcharged or undercharged, or who might compare the price to other competitors who use country-based pricing. 

By adjusting prices to match the local purchasing power, businesses can charge what customers can reasonably afford in different markets, without underpricing or overpricing their products or services. This can help businesses maintain a fair and competitive edge in the global market, as they can offer the best price for each customer, without losing money or customers to competitors who use country-based pricing.

How Does Country-Based Pricing Work?

Country-based pricing is an effective pricing strategy that can be implemented by any online business that wants to sell globally. Here are some abstract steps of how country-based pricing works:

  • Step 1: Identify the customer's location. 

This can be done by using the customer's IP address or GPS coordinates. Alternatively, the customer can also choose their location from a drop-down menu or a map on the website or app. This step is important because it lets the business know which market the customer belongs to, and which price to show them.

  • Step 2: Adjust the price based on the customer's location.

This can be done by using a formula or a table that calculates the price for each country or region, based on factors such as purchasing power, currency exchange rates, local demand, and competition. Alternatively, the price can also be manually set for each country or region, based on market research and testing. This step is important because it allows the business to set the optimal price for each market, and to match the local purchasing power of the customer.

  • Step 3: Display the price to the customer.

This can be done by showing the price in the customer's local currency, or by using a symbol or a banner that indicates that the price is adjusted for their location. The price should also be clear and transparent, without any hidden fees or charges. This step is important because it allows the customer to see the price that is relevant and fair for them, and to make an informed purchase decision.
