The YITH WooCommerce Minimum Maximum Quantity plugin is a professional tool designed to help store owners control order volumes.1 It is particularly popular for wholesale businesses or stores selling low-margin items where small orders aren't cost-effective.2
The plugin allows you to set "rules" that prevent customers from checking out unless their cart meets specific quantity or value requirements.3
Quantity Limits: Set the minimum and maximum number of items allowed for a single product, a specific category, or the entire cart.4
Spend Limits: Enforce a minimum or maximum dollar amount (e.g., "Must spend at least $50 to checkout").5
Step/Multiple Quantities: Force customers to buy in specific increments (e.g., "Must buy in multiples of 6" for wine or soda packs).6
Custom Notifications: Displays clear error messages on the product or cart page when a rule isn't met, guiding the user on how to fix it.7

Avoid "Cart Shock": Don't just show errors at checkout. Use the plugin's settings to show the minimum requirements directly on the Product Page so users aren't surprised later.10
Wholesale Strategy: If you have a mixed store (Retail + Wholesale), use the User Role feature to apply strict minimums only to users with the "Wholesaler" role while keeping the store open for regular shoppers.11
Shipping Optimization: Use this plugin to ensure your "Free Shipping" threshold is met by setting a minimum cart spend that matches your shipping policy.
