Price Adjustment Settings

Configure dynamic price adjustment features, set additional prices for product options, and implement flexible pricing strategies

Feature Overview

The price adjustment product is Sectionly's "hidden carrier" for implementing dynamic pricing. A single product can handle all option-based price adjustments across your entire store (no need to create individual SKUs for each price variation).

This product remains invisible on the frontend and is used solely for backend price calculations. It must maintain an "Active" status to function properly.

Core Scenarios & Operations

Price Calculation Logic

When customers select options with price adjustments, the main product price = original price + additional price (updated in real-time)

In the shopping cart, only the main product and final price are displayed (no separate price adjustment product shown):

Managing Price Adjustment Products

In your Shopify admin "Products" list, you'll find the auto-generated "Adjustment Product" (name contains "Sectionly Adjustment" identifier):

Important Notice

You can modify basic product information (such as name and description), but do not delete or modify the price and product status (this will break the price adjustment logic).
