A Survey of the Empirical Evidence on PWYW Pricing

Matthias Greiff and Henrik Egbert ()

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: We review a large number of empirical studies on Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) pricing. We distinguish between laboratory experiments, field experiments, survey experiments and case studies. Based on this survey we identify the following two gaps in the recently flourishing literature on PWYW pricing: (1) studies on PWYW pricing for goods with high cost, and (2) studies on the long-term effects of PWYW pricing.
