12. WooCommerce Variable Products are a product type that lets you offer a set of
variations on a particular product such as price, stock, size and more. For example, they
may be used on a shirt that’s offered in large, medium and small sizes and in different
colours.
Shopify Product Variants are used on products that come with more than one option,
such as color or size. Each combination of options is a variant of that product. For
example, you might sell a t-shirt with two options, such as size and color. The size option
might have three option values: small, medium, or large. The color option might have two
option values: blue or green. A variant of these options could be a small, blue t-shirt.
Product Model Definitions
13. Simplified Product Offers - One Price
Product markup would only use the properties that are shared across all variants such as, name,
image, and description. The Product type would then use the offers property to connect to either an
Offer, if no variation in pricing was present, or an AggregateOffer if pricing changed among the
product variants.
14. Simplified Product Offers - Price Range
If you were selling something that varied in price—for instance, Soap that comes in 250ml, 500ml
and 1000ml bottles—then you could call out the lowest price and highest price using
AggregateOffer.
15. Each Variant as an Individual Offer Example 1
Includes each variant’s price and availability as a separate Offer. Each Offer should have a sku to
differentiate it from other variants, along with its price and availability.
16. Each Variant as an Individual Offer Example 2
The Soap Suds example shows varying Offer properties sku, name, price, priceCurrency (in ISO
4217 currency format) and availability.
17. Each Variant as a Product Model
Use Product Model if your products have significant
variations among their critical properties.
First define a schema.org/Product as the base product,
adding properties that are common across all variations.
To express properties that are variable, use the
ProductModel type.
Note that ProductModels themselves may contain other
ProductModels. This relationship can be defined using the
isVariantOf property.
