# Price tiers

Price tiers let you segment the pricing of your products by defining specific intervals where the unit price of the associated SKU stays the same (changing when each interval's upper limit is exceeded).

At the moment [volume tiers](/core-api-reference/price_volume_tiers.md) and [frequency tiers](/core-api-reference/price_frequency_tiers.md) are available for prices (more to come).

{% hint style="info" %}
A maximum of **10 tiers in total per price** are currently allowed, no matter what type.
{% endhint %}
