What Are Compare-at Prices?

Compare-at prices are a powerful tool for creating compelling strikethrough pricing that highlights discounts and drives customer purchases. They display a higher original price alongside your current sale price, creating urgency and boosting conversions.

Benefits of Managing Compare-at Prices in Catalogs

Shopify now allows you to set and edit compare-at prices directly within Catalogs. This simplifies strikethrough pricing management and eliminates the need for complex CSV uploads or API interactions.

Key Features:

  • Edit directly in Catalogs: Update compare-at prices without manual imports or technical steps.
  • Preservation of values: Existing compare-at prices are maintained, preventing accidental overwrites.
  • Market-specific previews: Use the View As feature to see how pricing appears in different markets before publishing.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Navigate to Catalogs

Head to your Shopify admin and open the Catalogs section under Products. Here, you can view and adjust pricing details.

2. Adjust Prices

Select the product you wish to modify. Edit both the current price and compare-at price as needed.

3. Preview Pricing

Use the View As feature to preview how your prices will look to customers in various regions. Make adjustments if necessary before publishing.
