How it sells itself

LimitLock sets minimum and maximum purchase limits and enforces them inside checkout itself, server-side. Because enforcement happens in checkout rather than in cart scripts, rules apply on every purchase path, including accelerated checkouts. Set min and max quantities per product, variant, or collection, plus order-wide item and subtotal limits. Shoppers see which limit they hit and how to fix it.

Enhance your online store and/or B2B strategy. Easily establish minimum and maximum order limits. Define thresholds for price, quantity, weight, and items. Customize by product, variant, type, vendor, tag, or collection. Set flexible limits with start/end dates, translations, and 'if' statements.

Key points
  • Min/max rules enforced by checkout itself, server-side
  • Product, variant, collection, and order-level quantity limits
  • No theme edits - works with every theme, setup in about 60 seconds
  • An crucial resource for B2B, accessible checkout extensions for Shopify Plus.
  • Apply limits to items, collections, whole cart, vendors, tags or product types.
  • Control cart limits based on total price, quantity, unique item count or weight.
  • Customize notification style and translate texts in multiple languages.
