2025Redefining Fairness: How Second-Degree Price Discrimination Can Bring Greater Access to Essential Goods and Services in Emerging Markets
Second-degree price discrimination is a pricing model in which customers are offered a lower price point in exchange for a lower level of quality or convenience, or a lower price per unit in exchange for purchasing a larger amount of the product.
