How it sells itself

Shopify's store settings have no per-product minimum or minimum order amount. Theme tweaks and cart messages get skipped by Shop Pay and other express checkouts, so a $20 order slips past a $50 minimum. Mastiff enforces rules at checkout: minimum order quantity (MOQ), max quantity, minimum purchase amount, max order value, per-customer caps and case-pack multiples for B2B.

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
  • Enforce MOQ, max quantity, order value, and case-pack multiples at checkout
  • Test any cart in the simulator before you publish, no surprises when it's live
  • Scope any rule to a product, variant, collection, or whole cart.
  • 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.
