Time-based pricing is a special case of price discrimination in which producers charge different rates for a given good or service depending on the time, day, month, and so on. For instance, it is common practice in the tourism industry to charge higher prices during the peak season, or during special-event periods and only charge the operating costs of the establishment during the offpeak season. Investments for business expansion in this case is funded out of profit earned during the peak season. Another common example of this pricing strategy is found in transportation sectors, which may charge higher prices during rush-hours.
