Dynamic pricing – what is it?

Dynamic pricing is a strategy in which prices for products or services are flexibly adjusted in response to changes in demand, supply, competition and other market factors. Such a pricing model allows companies to maximize revenues by responding to changing market conditions in real time.

In dynamic pricing, companies can use various algorithms and technologies to analyze data on sales, customer preferences and competitor prices. For example, in the e-commerce and airline industry, prices can change depending on the number of seats available, current demand and when a purchase is made. As a result, customers may see different prices for the same product at different times.

Dynamic pricing has many advantages, such as increasing inventory management efficiency and optimizing revenue. However, it can also be controversial, as customers may perceive price changes as unpredictable or unfair.
