Creating & Assigning Customer Groups

Creating & Assigning Customer Groups

Customer groups are a popular way for retailers to set different price levels and/or discounts to a specific group of customers.

These groups might include:

     •    First 100 Customers
     •    Wholesalers
     •    VIP Customers

If you assign a customer to one of the created groups, they will get a percentage discount on any or all items, as you’ve specified in Uprow.
