Wendy's dynamic pricing model to launch next year

Last month, the company announced plans to implement a dynamic pricing model as soon as next year.

In a February earnings call, CEO Kirk Tanner said prices would fluctuate based on factors like time, location and demand. With this change would come new additions like digital menu boards that update prices in real time and menu offers that update based on certain parts of the day.

However, the company rejected the nation that it is implementing "surge-pricing," a strategy commonly associated with ticket sellers and ride sharing apps like Uber.

"We said these menu boards would give us more flexibility to change the display of featured items. This was misconstrued in some media reports as an intent to raise prices when demand is highest at our restaurants," Wendy's said in an emailed statement to USA TODAY on Feb. 27. "We have no plans to do that and would not raise prices when our customers are visiting us most."
