On Halykmarket, compete only with sellers on the same installment term
On Halykmarket a product sells in installments over 3, 6, 12 or 24 months, and each term has its own sellers. Pick a term for the product and turn on “Dumping within the selected installment plan” — the bot will then compete only with sellers on that term, not with everyone at once.
INSTALLMENT TERMS ON HALYKMARKET
- 3months

Two settings: term and toggle
The term is set per product; the toggle is one for the whole store.
Per product
Installment term
The term is chosen in the products table or in the product card: 3, 6, 12 or 24 months.
- In the products table — the installment column
- In the product card — the “Installment Control” row
- The term stays with the product even when the toggle is off
Whole store
The “Dumping within the selected installment plan” toggle
Turned on in the feature window; it decides who the bot treats as competitors.
- On: the bot competes among sellers with the same installment term as the product.
- Off: the bot competes among all sellers, regardless of the term.
What you get
All of this works with the “Dumping within the selected installment plan” toggle on.
-
Other terms don’t knock your price down
With the toggle on, you don’t compete with sellers on another installment term. For example, 24-month sellers no longer affect the price of a 3-month product.
-
The price doesn’t drop for nothing
The bot lowers the price only against real competitors — sellers on your installment term.
-
Each product has its own term
You can choose a term per product: 3 months for some, 12 or 24 for others.
Where to find it
Three steps: connect the feature, turn on the toggle, set terms for products.
-
Connect the feature
Go to “Features” → “Installment Control” → “Connect”.
-
Turn on the toggle
In the feature window, turn on “Dumping within the selected installment plan”.
-
Set terms for products
“Products” → the product you need → “Installment Control”: 3, 6, 12 or 24 months. The same setting is in the products table — the installment column.
Good to know
- The feature works on Halykmarket only. It can’t be connected for Kaspi.
- Without the toggle on, the installment term doesn’t affect who the bot competes with.
- The toggle applies to the whole store, while the term is chosen per product.
“Unavailable for the current marketplace”. This message appears when a Kaspi store is open. Switch to your Halykmarket store and the feature becomes available.
FAQ
Short answers on how the feature behaves in practice.
Why does it say “Unavailable for the current marketplace”?
A Kaspi store is open. The feature works on Halykmarket only — switch to your Halykmarket store and it becomes available.
Do I need to choose a term for every product?
Yes. Choose a term for each product — until you do, the installment cell in the products table stays empty.
Can different products have different terms?
Yes. The term is chosen per product, while the “Dumping within the selected installment plan” toggle applies to the whole store at once.
What happens if I turn the toggle off?
The bot goes back to competing with all sellers in the listing, regardless of the installment term. The chosen term stays with the product.
Is there something similar for Kaspi?
For Kaspi there is “Delivery-based repricing”: the bot narrows the list of competitors too, but by delivery time rather than installment term.
How much does the feature cost?
The price is shown on the feature card in “Features”.
