# Customer groups

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/saas/llms.txt).

Assigning users to customer groups allows defining user-specific pricing rules.

You can assign users to different customer groups to enable [custom pricing](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/saas/product_catalog/prices/index.md). This enables you to give specific prices or price discounts (global or per product) to specific groups of users.

For example, you can offer a 10% discount for all products in the catalog to users who belong to the Resellers customer group.

> **Tip: Tip**

> Customer groups aren't the same as user groups. User groups concern all users in the system and can be used, for example, to handle permissions. Customer groups refer specifically to the product catalog functionalities and enable handling prices.

## Enabling customer groups

To enable the use of customer groups, you need to modify the user content type's definition by adding a [customer group field](https://doc.ibexa.co/en/saas/content_management/field_types/field_type_reference/customergroupfield/index.md).

With this field you can add a user to any of the predefined customer groups.
