I've been testing the variants option and I want to be sure what I want to do is possible...



I sell digital downloads of videos. These videos will soon be priced differently on our web site, depending on organization size. Yet, the video is the exact same product. So, we will have 1 digital product with 3 different prices.



We currently integrate with e-junkie using the URL containing the e-junkie product code. I need to be able to have 1 product with 3 different product codes, each with a different price.



Is this possible with variants? Thanks!

You could do that, or you could actually have 3 separate products with their own price that all issue download links for the same uploaded file (using our "Package files from other products" setting), or you could simply add an &amount= parameter on the button URL to boost the price of the more-expensive versions of the product:

Hi, i'd like to piggyback off leelefever's post if i may: I have a timer on my page with a price of $27 if they purchase within 20 minutes, and once the 20 minutes is up, the price jumps up to $54. So essentially, one product with two available prices.. can i use your system to work with my timed pricing? Which price do i enter when adding a new product?



On my site now, i have Google Checkout and when the price jumps, Google just charges them for that price. Not sure how your buy now buttons will handle this?



Thank you.

You might be able to set something like this up, but the timer would not be integrated with E-junkie and it would require you to add custom scripting to your website. You would create your product twice, once with the cost of $27 and once with the price set as $54. You would use the script to use the button code for the $27 price until the timer on your site reaches 20 minutes, after that it will use the button code for the $54 product. You would likely also want to add in to automatically use the $54 price if the user/buyer has java script turned off on their computer.

The script, the script... Do you have instructions or something that shows exactly how to write the custom script you're describing?



When creating the product twice, the buyer only sees the one product for sale, correct? And then when the timer ends it jumps to the 2nd 'custom script' charging the $54.?

Actually, i got it! LOL, because since there is a timer, once the time ends a second pop up appears with the $54 and this is where the 2nd script would come in. Ysay, it took me awhile but i got it!
