Hey, @Crystal_ZP

I’d recommend taking a look at an app such as MinCart to set up maximum order limits. They are going to allow you to set up conditions centered around the customer, which appears to be what you are looking for. The app features a 7-day free trial and then starts at $2.99/month. If you need any help setting up the app, you can get in touch with the developers of the app by email here.

If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know.

Hi @Dirk ,

Thanks for your suggestion. I have try MinCart before. It seems that they didn’t support multi - language. Our webpage have both English and Chinese. In the Chinese version, the pop up message cannot change to Chinese and the checkout button still allow customer checkout over the limitation. I have sent them this problem and waiting for reply. I a try to seeking another solution to reply this app.

Hi @Crystal_ZP if you are still looking for a solution to this you can try using the Checkout Guardian app, wherein you can set the total quantity of products to be order by a particalur customer, group of customer and many more.

Let me know if you find this app suitable as per your requirment.

Hi @Crystal_ZP,

I saw your question about monthly limits for a customer group. In DC Order Limits, you can target a rule to specific customer tags and to products in a collection or tag group.

Setup:

  1. Create a customer purchase limit rule

  2. Set max quantity to 10

  3. Apply it to the products you want to limit, for example, a collection or product tag

  4. Target only customers with your customer tag

  5. Use Shopify Flow to reset the tracked purchase history at the start of each month

Let us know if this setup works. We’re happy to help with any follow-up questions.

Hi @Crystal_ZP

Providence theme does not do this out of the box. The quickest way (in my opinion) is a custom app or Shopify Functions using customer tags and line item validation to enforce a monthly limit per collection. Apps won’t handle monthly resets cleanly. Use your own storefront metafields to keep track of quantity per customer and reset your schedule job running a monthly background task
