# Package pricing

In Zenskar, **package pricing** is a pricing strategy in which a service or product is sold as a package. Package pricing works based two parameters: package size and package price.

Let us assume that a product is sold as a package under the following conditions:

| Package size (units) | Package price (USD/package) |
| :------------------- | :-------------------------- |
| 10                   | 10                          |

* If the customer purchases 10 units, they will be billed for 10 units or 1 package or 10 USD.
* If the customer purchases 11 units, they will be billed for 20 units or 2 packages or 20 USD.

## Add a product based on package pricing

> 🔖 Important
>
> Refer the [products documentation](/docs/20240301/product-modules/products/concepts/products) to learn more about the concept of products in Zenskar.

### Step 1: Add a product based on package pricing

1. Navigate to **Contracts** > **Products**, and click on the **ADD PRODUCT** button.
2. Select the **Package Pricing** from the drop-down.
3. Select or deselect **Metered**:
   1. If the service or product is [metered](/docs/20240301/product-modules/usage/concepts/usage-event), select the [appropriate usage aggregate](/docs/20240301/product-modules/usage/concepts/usage-event) from the drop-down.
   2. If the service or product is not metered, enter the quantity.
4. Fill in all other details, and select all the desired features.
5. Save the product.

#### Example: non-metered purchase

Details:

> 🔖 A short story
>
> Let us assume that six malaria-injection vials are recommended as full course of medication. Also, let us assume that this full course of medication comes in a tamper proof package. Therefore, if someone needs a seventh vial (maybe, they broke a vial), a full package must be shipped.

* Malaria-injection vials are being sold as a package:

| Package size (units) | Package price (USD/package) |
| :------------------- | :-------------------------- |
| 6                    | 600                         |

* This is a one-time purchase (non-metered product).

#### Example: metered purchase

* Continuing with the above story, let us assume that the customer requires continuous supply of malaria-injection vials.
* Maybe, they are in a tropical country with high rates of malaria infection.
* This situation can be handled by turning the one-time purchase in to a recurring purchase (metered product).
* Since it is recurring, the number of purchases must be tracked. This process of tracking purchases is called metering.
