Why WooCommerce Stores Need Quantity Limits
WooCommerce lets customers buy any quantity by default. That leads to orders that are too small to be profitable, too large for your stock, or in amounts that do not match how you pack and ship.
Without quantity rules
- Customers order 1 unit of a product you sell in packs of 6
- Small orders cost more to pick and ship than they earn
- One buyer can clear out limited stock in a single order
- No way to require a minimum order value
With MinMax Quantities
- Set a minimum and maximum quantity for each product
- Sell only in multiples of 2, 5, 10 or any step
- Limit the number of items in the cart
- Require a minimum order amount before checkout
