What are customer groups?

Onsight enables you to group similar customers. These are called customer groups. Within a customer group you can assign specific discounts and prices for products. You can also restrict access to products based on which group a customer belongs to.

 

Examples of customer groups:

  • Retail and Wholesale – Create different price lists for retail and wholesale customers
  • Platinum, Gold and Silver – Apply discounts to repeat customers based on customer loyalty
  • Location Name – Have customers from different areas view different prices (especially useful if you are using Onsight in your retail stores).
  • Special members – Restrict content to customers in certain groups or add special discounts.

How to create a customer group

  • Log in to the Onsight web console at https://web.onsightapp.com/ .

  • Click on the ‘Manage Groups’ menu item.
  • Click on the “Add Group” button at the top of the screen.
