Wholesale Pricing & Inventory Control

Wholesale Pricing & Inventory Control for WooCommerce lets you set custom product prices — by user role, by individual customer, or for guests — enforce minimum and maximum order quantities, and manage stock for each product and variation. Update pricing across many products at once with the built-in Bulk Editor, and create your own custom customer roles directly inside the plugin. Hide or show prices, disable the Add-to-Cart button, and display personalized messages, making it ideal for wholesale, B2B, and membership-based stores.

Setup and Configuration

Managing Products from the Wholesale Pricing Tab

↑ Back to top

The plugin adds a new management tab inside WooCommerce → User Based Pricing, allowing you to quickly update inventory and configure user role and individual-customer pricing for all your products without opening them individually.

This tab displays a complete list of your store’s products in a clean table layout — with checkboxes next to each row for bulk actions — making it easy to manage pricing and stock efficiently from a single place.

Update Stock Status Easily

↑ Back to top

• Change product stock status (In Stock, Out of Stock, On Backorder)
• Update stock quantity directly from the table
• Save all updates instantly without opening the product page

This makes stock management much faster for large WooCommerce stores.

Building a Pricing Rule

↑ Back to top

Each product row includes a Manage Pricing button. Clicking it opens the pricing rule builder, where you can add one or more rules to a single product.

For each rule, choose:

1. Apply To — whether this rule applies to a User Role or an Individual User.
2. If User Role is selected, choose the role from the dropdown (Administrator, Editor, Author, Contributor, Customer, Subscriber, Shop Manager, or Guest — Not Logged-In, plus any custom roles you’ve created).
3. If Individual User is selected, use the search box to find and select a specific customer by name or email.
4. Set the Regular Price and, optionally, a Sale Price for this role or user.
5. Optionally set a Min Qty and/or Max Qty to enforce order quantity limits for this role or user.

You can click + Add Rule to add as many rules as you need to the same product — for example, one rule for “Wholesale,” another for a specific VIP customer, and another for Guests.

Only the Guest rule can also include:

• Hide Add to Cart — hides the Add-to-Cart button for guests.
• Hide Price — hides the price display for guests.
• Custom Message — a message shown to guests instead (e.g. “Log in to see wholesale pricing”).

After configuring your rules, click Save Pricing Rules. Wholesale Pricing & Inventory Control will automatically apply the correct pricing, quantity limits, and display settings on the frontend — matching each shopper to the most specific rule that applies to them (an individual-user rule always takes priority over a role rule).

Setting Individual Customer Pricing

↑ Back to top

In addition to role-based pricing, you can set a special price for one specific customer — useful for VIP accounts, long-standing wholesale partners, or one-off negotiated deals. Select Individual User as the target in a rule, then search for the customer by name or email and select them from the results. The price, sale price, and quantity limits you set will apply only to that customer.

Setting Minimum & Maximum Order Quantities

↑ Back to top

Each pricing rule can include a Min Qty and/or Max Qty. This lets you require a minimum order size for wholesale roles (e.g. a case quantity), or cap how much of a product a single role or customer is allowed to buy. These limits are enforced automatically on the product page and at checkout.

Bulk Editing Multiple Products

↑ Back to top

To update pricing across many products at once, select the checkbox next to each product you want to update in the products table, then click ⚙ Bulk Edit Pricing above the table. The same rule builder opens — configure your rule (role/user, price, sale price, min/max qty) and click Apply to Selected Products.

The rule is added to every product you selected. If a matching rule (same role or same individual user) already exists on a product, it’s updated rather than duplicated — so you can safely re-run a bulk update to adjust pricing later.

Creating Custom User Roles

↑ Back to top

From the Manage User Roles tab (next to Pricing & Stock Rules), you can create new customer roles specific to your business — for example, “Wholesale Buyer,” “VIP Reseller,” or “Distributor.” Enter a role name and click Create Role; the new role immediately becomes available when building a pricing rule.

Roles created through the plugin can also be deleted from the same screen. For safety, only roles created here can be deleted — WordPress and WooCommerce’s own built-in roles are never affected. Any users on a deleted role are automatically moved to the Customer role.

Manage Variations Product Easily

↑ Back to top

With Wholesale Pricing & Inventory Control, you can update stock status, manage stock quantities, and set role- or individual-user pricing rules for each product variation. Every variation is displayed in a clean table, allowing you to adjust stock levels and assign custom prices for each user role or customer individually.

Filter Products Quickly

↑ Back to top

With Wholesale Pricing & Inventory Control, you can easily filter products by category or search by product name. Quickly find any product and manage its stock or pricing rules without scrolling through the entire product list.
