Magento 2 Tier Prices Import File Example

How is it possible to import tier price to Magento 2? Basically, it is all about file formatting.

  • word ‘admin’,

  • minimum number of items that should purchase for the indicated price
  • the price (usually less than actual product price) that would be charged for each of the indicated number of items in format xx.xxxx.

Make sure the elements of the field are separated by a delimiter.
