Flat Rate Pricing in Ply: How to Make It Work with Kits

While Ply doesn’t have built-in flat rate pricing (yet!), many companies have found a solid workaround using Kits. If you're looking to implement a flat rate model for your materials and services, Kits might be the perfect solution.

Kits allow you to bundle multiple materials together under a single price, creating a "group" cost. This makes it possible to charge a flat rate, even if the individual materials inside the kit have different costs elsewhere in your system.

✅ Consistent Pricing – Set a fixed price for a service or job, no matter the material costs.

✅ Multiple Price Tiers – You can create different Kits with different pricing, even if they contain the same materials.

✅ Easy to Manage – Instead of manually adjusting individual prices, just apply a Kit to your jobs.
