Uber uses a pricing strategy based on real-time market conditions. It charges less in periods of low demand and more during periods of high demand. Sometimes these prices double or triple during periods of high demand.

This demand-based pricing strategy is an example of
 A) special-event pricing.
  B) penetration pricing.
  C) dynamic pricing.
  D) prestige pricing.
  E) reference pricing.
