Record and Display Price History

The Omnibus Directive requires EU Member States to offer protections to e-commerce consumers. These protections include transparency about product pricing. The Qala Product Price History for WooCommerce helps WooCommerce vendors meet these requirements.

Qala Product Price History for WooCommerce records and displays price changes. It includes these required features of the Omnibus Directive:

• Displays a graph of the last 30 days of a product’s price and its variation’s prices
• Displays a small text with the lowest price for the product in the last 30 days

If an admin has made a price change in error, the admin can hide / display different price changes.
