Episode The Decoy Effect In Your Daily Spending

0:00 11:39

We examine how the decoy effect shapes everything from your morning coffee to enterprise software contracts. Using a specific case study of a major streaming service's pricing tier redesign, we explore why adding a third, slightly worse option makes the middle tier look like a steal. Lucas breaks down the psychology of asymmetric dominance and Luna asks how consumers can spot when they are being nudged into paying more for something they did not originally want.
