Sliding scale pricing is a pricing model in which the cost of a product or service is based on the customer's ability to pay, with different prices offered based on income or other factors.
A sliding scale pricing model in the specialty coffee industry is used to ensure that the cost of a cup of coffee is based on the customer's ability to pay, rather than a fixed price for all customers. This approach allows customers with limited financial means to still access high-quality specialty coffee while also providing a way for the business to generate revenue and maintain financial sustainability. Additionally, sliding scale pricing can help to create a more inclusive and equitable environment for all customers.
