Abstract

The manner, in which prices are presented to consumers, as well as their categories, has a great impact on consumers’ behaviour. The main reason behind this phenomenon is that consumers tend to take ‘shortcuts’ when choosing between competing alternatives, be it products or services. As much as price framing is good for retailers and marketers, it has both positive and negative effects on consumers. When the strategy provides real value to consumers as perceived, then it is ethical. However, price framing at times could be misleading to consumers hence denying them value for their money. A number of scholars have analysed the effects of price framing from different perspectives. This paper provides a review analysis of various research works on price framing from the period in which the concept was officially included in academic literature. This review aims to find gaps in the literature concerning price framing and set a future agenda for research in this field. A systematic review approach was adopted for this study to ensure its purpose is achieved.
