季节性打折(seasonal discount)

淡季(slack period)。

讨价还价(bargaining)

数量累积折扣(cumulative quantity discount/accumulation discount)

现金返还(rebate)通常指全额付款后返回一部分现金给购买者。现在很多商场搞

的返券活动应该属于此类。例如,广告上说"$59 After Rebate",但全价(OTD/Out-the-door)是$89,这里消费者需要办理返现(redeem)的金额是30美元。

此外还有促销让利(promotional allowance)或代理折让(brokerage allowance)等。
