“The Decoy Effect: How Brands Trick You into Choosing More” The Decoy Effect is a pricing strategy where businesses introduce a third, less attractive option (the “decoy”) to subtly push customers toward a more profitable choice. It plays on human psychology by making one option look like a better deal simply through comparison. For example, a popcorn stand may offer: • Small: ₹100 • Medium: ₹180 • Large: ₹200 Most people skip the small, and the medium seems overpriced compared to the large.

Brands like Apple, Starbucks, and many SaaS companies use this trick to influence purchasing decisions without customers even realizing it.
