When running an e-commerce site, have you ever had needs like "I want to set a one-item-per-customer purchase limit as an anti-resale measure" or "For B2B (wholesale), I want to only accept orders of 10 or more units"?
However, Shopify's default features can't achieve such fine-grained purchase restrictions or quantity limits.
That's where the Shopify app we're introducing today, "MinMaxify Order Limits," comes in handy.
With this app, you can easily set minimum and maximum limits on the total cart amount or on the purchase quantity per product.
This article clearly explains everything from MinMaxify's pricing plans to the actual installation method, and the specific setup steps for both "whole cart" and "per product" limits. If you're struggling with complex sales conditions, please take a look.
