How it sells itself

Set order limits that Shopify checkout enforces. Add a minimum order quantity (MOQ), maximum quantity, minimum order amount or minimum cart value for any product, variant, collection or the whole cart. Apply quantity limits only to some buyers: by customer tag, B2B company, country, ZIP code or login status. Combine AND/OR conditions in one rule. Also block PO boxes and set ZIP code restrictions.

Your sale is live, then a welcome or influencer code lands on top and your margin quietly disappears. Guardly rejects discount codes when the cart has sale items, checked per variant, using the codes you already have. Mixed carts still get the code on items not on sale. Stop code stacking, limit codes per order, or pause a code family during a sale. Add minimum and maximum quantities, packs and wholesale minimums.

Key points
  • Block or validate orders with multiple checkout rules.
  • Display warnings and messages on product pages, cart pages, and during checkout.
  • Import & Export to move rules between stores.
  • Reject discount codes on sale items, checked per variant, with your own message
  • Re-apply the discount to items not on sale so mixed carts still save
  • Stop code stacking, cap codes per order, or pause influencer codes in a sale
  • Set min and max quantities, packs and wholesale minimums by customer tag
