Limit purchases over $1,000

🎯 Overview and Behavior

Limits checkout when the cart subtotal amount is $1,000 or more. When the subtotal of products in the cart reaches $1,000 or more, customers see an alert at checkout and cannot complete the order.

🚀 Setup Steps

1. Preparation

1. Create new rule → Click “Create New Rule” button
2. Configure basic information
   • Title (example): “Maximum order amount less than $1,000”
   • Alert message (example): “Please place orders under $1,000”

For details, please refer to How to Set Up Order Limits.

2. Condition Settings

Enter the following in the condition settings screen:

• Condition 1
  • Condition type: Cart subtotal amount
  • Operator: greater than or equal to
  • Value: 1,000
  • Product Scope: All products in cart

The settings will look like this image:

What this means: Because this recipe uses the “Cart subtotal amount” condition, checkout is blocked once the product subtotal, or discounts—is $1,000 or more. If you need to evaluate the final amount after adjustments, use the “Cart total amount” condition instead.

3. Save and Activate Rule

1. Save rule → After entering all settings, save the rule
2. Activate → Click “Set active” button to start the limits
