New Extensions
The minimum price set by the manufacturer isn’t the bottom line any more! With the Minimum Advertised Price extension by aheadWorks you can sell products at the price you want.
Suppliers and retailers quite often stipulate the lowest price an item is allowed to be advertised at. But sometimes in-store prices can be really lower than allowed by the suppliers, but may not be displayed in online advertising. The Minimum Advertised Price extension helps you to escape the conflicts with the manufacturers and sell products at the prices you wish.
Minimum Advertised Price adds a special Check Price button instead of the product price. Having clicked this button, you add an item to the shopping cart, and only then the required price becomes visible.
Some features are:
- Fast loading AJAX layer
- Completely configurable layer text, images and buttons
- Configurable independent category/search/product page views
- Supports direct HTML embedding
- Fully customizable buttons and actions
- Ability to include any content that Magento CMS can involve
- 100% meets Minimum Advertised Price implementation standards
- Comes with detailed setup and configuration documentation
To learn the whole list of Minimum Advertised Price features please visit the extension page.
