# Price update

Content Egg will automatically update the prices and stock status of all products added on your website. 

{% hint style="info" %}
You can't have real-time prices on your website. Instead, prices will update on a schedule.
{% endhint %}

Each module has the `Price update` setting, i.e., the number of seconds after which it is the product's price must be updated. For example, set `86400` to update prices once a day.

There are two ways to update prices:

1. `Page view` will refresh products with traffic when the visitor opens the web page.  The disadvantage of this method is that you may sometimes notice a slight delay in the page's load time due to the request for new data.
2. `Cron` updates in the background using WP cron. No other cron settings are needed.

{% hint style="info" %}
We don't recommend updating prices more than once a day. This value should be even higher for Affiliate Egg modules.
