English term or phrase: surge pricing
Definition from TapRun.com:
A strategy that increases prices as demand increases and decreases prices as demand shrinks. Energy companies often use this strategy, as the cost of electricity will vary over the course of a day.

Example sentence(s):
  • Apart from the cab industry and the food delivery industry there are other industries which are naturally suited to applying surge pricing in order to alter consumer and service provider behavior. Medium
  • Concerts and sporting events are obvious candidates for surge pricing because they involve large groups of people trying to leave the same place at the same time, which could easily overwhelm the supply of available drivers. But there are also examples of more geographically diffuse surge pricing events, often coinciding with holidays or inclement weather. Todd W. Schneider
  • In fact, surge pricing effectively makes the peak period more attractive for that subset, as there is likely to be less congestion when price-sensitive shoppers shift to off-peak periods. Anderson School of Management

dinamičko određivanje cijena


Definition from Business EMT:
Dinamičko određivanje cijena, također poznato kao određivanje cijena temeljeno na vremenu ili diskriminacija cijena u trećem stupnju, događa se kada su klijenti podijeljeni u dvije ili više skupina s odvojenim krivuljama potražnje, a različite se cijene naplaćuju svakoj grupi.

Example sentence(s):
  • STRATEGIJA DINAMIČKOG ODREĐIVANJA CIJENA U E-TRGOVINI - ZIR  
  • Iz Ubera su, doduše, prije 31. prosinca upozorili korisnike na dinamičko određivanje cijena koje ta aplikacija primjenjuje već neko vrijeme u Zagrebu i Hrvatskoj, a zbog kojih je Uber najskuplji onda kad je najpotrebniji, odnosno onda kad je najveća potražnja za prijevozom u gradu i kad je jako teško naći slobodni taksi, piše Večernji list. - Poslovni.hr
