Market Prices: Did you know? Mart customers get Daily prices for free.

Posted on: 19th March, 2024

Since it’s launch, you have signed up in your thousands, and we are pleased that you have found your way to the new home for Market Prices, here at the LAA. 

We have been delighted with the uptake to the new platform, and indeed the positive user feedback we have received to date. 

However, with anything new, it can take a little while to get fully up to speed with a new purpose-built system and the benefits it provides. 

Most importantly, we want to make sure that you aren’t missing out on the extra benefits available to customers of LAA livestock markets.  

BENEFITS FOR MART CUSTOMERS

Did you know? Regular livestock market users*, both buyers and vendors, have FREE access to our DAILY PRICES subscription plan, usually charged at £4.99p/m. All you need to access is your unique mart account number (usually found on your sales invoice or statement from your local mart).

Daily Prices is our essential livestock prices plan, equivalent to the previous system, providing you with market prices for store and finished livestock, 12pm and 8pm daily. Plus, view prices by day of the week or individual market, and monitor regional and national trends with our comparison tool. 

We’re rewarding supporters of the live auction ring by ensuring you can stay ahead and stay informed with our Daily Prices plan, free of charge. 

SIMPLY UPGRADE FROM WEEKLY, TO DAILY PRICES…FOR FREE

If you originally signed up to the WEEKLY PRICES plan, unaware that as a mart customer you can have free access to DAILY PRICES, we’ve made it quick and easy to upgrade.

NEED MORE FROM MARKET PRICES? – FREE TRIAL STILL AVAILABLE

Of course, if you want to go one step further, there is still opportunity to trial the new premium REAL TIME PRICES subscription plan free of charge. 

This is for a limited time only, and will expire on 31 March, but why not explore the enhanced features, new data sets and monitoring tools available.

If you decide the package is not for you, you can simply move back to the free DAILY PRICES plan when the offer expires, but we think you’ll rather like what the REAL TIME subscription plan has to offer you. 

Get all prices delivered in real time, as soon as sales complete, along with breeding prices for sheep, cattle and pigs. Utilise our advanced comparison tool to monitor market trends for individual markets, regionally and nationally.
