The FTC plans to intensify regulatory scrutiny on personalized pricing, particularly in delivery, rideshare, and air travel, with cities like Seattle and New York City enacting or proposing restrictive laws that ban or limit the use of consumer data for individualized pricing. Several states have also enacted laws requiring disclosure or prohibiting personalized pricing in grocery and other retail sectors.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face growing legal barriers to using consumer data for individualised prices as local and federal authorities shift from disclosure demands to outright bans. Review your pricing models now to avoid compliance risks and loss of market access in key US cities and states.
