The price optimization software market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for price optimization software has been expanding quickly in the past few years. Its growth is anticipated to increase from $1.23 billion in 2024 to $1.4 billion in 2025, showing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4%.
The surge in growth during the historical period can be credited to the emergence of e-commerce and digital retailing, a heightened focus on operational efficiency, a movement towards cloud-based solutions, the requirement for dynamic pricing strategies, and fast-paced digitalization.
The price optimization software market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The expected market size surge for price optimization software in the coming years is significant, as it's projected to reach $2.38 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.1%.
This escalation during the forecasted period is likely due to the development of mobile and IoT technologies, amplified focus on individualized customer interactions, the popularity of subscription-based pricing structures, and a heightened emphasis on dynamic and immediate pricing capabilities. The forecast period is set to see an increased focus on personalized pricing and customer segmentation, broader application of multichannel and omnichannel pricing solutions, utilization of big data for improved decision-making, progression of mobile and SaaS platforms, and the integration of AI and ML into operations.
The price optimization software market is set for growth, spurred on by the expanding e-commerce industry. The e-commerce sector, which consists of digital platforms for buying and selling goods and services via websites or mobile apps, is experiencing growth due to increased worldwide internet access, providing more opportunities for online shopping. Furthermore, improvements in supply chain and delivery solutions offer quicker and more dependability in shipping. Price optimization software aids the e-commerce sector by interpreting market information and customer behavior to establish ideal pricing strategies, enhancing revenue generation and competitiveness. For example, a report by the United States Census Bureau (a US government agency) in May 2023 stated that U.S. retail e-commerce sales for the second quarter of 2024 reached an estimated $282.3 billion—a 5.3 percent rise from the first quarter of the year and a 6.6 percent increase from the previous year's second quarter. Hence, the rising e-commerce sector is bolstering the growth of the price optimization software market.
