Maximum Purchase for WooCommerce

Description

The Maximum Purchase plugin for WooCommerce gives you the ability to set up maximum purchase rules for products in your WooCommerce 1.0+ store. Customer purchases must then meet these rules, to proceed to checkout payment.

If a purchase in your store fails a maximum purchase rule, an error message appears at the top of the checkout page, identifying the error situation and rule requirements. The customer must resolve the error, before the purchase can be completed.

How does the rule choose to examine the cart? [Search Criteria]

  • By Role/Membership for cart contents (allows different pricing rules for customer types / logged-in role, such as wholesalers or preferred customers).

Role/Membership Info for Search Criteria

Role/Membership is used within WordPress to control access and capabilities, when a role is given to a user. WordPress assigns certain roles by default such as Subscriber for new users or Administrator for the site’s owner. Roles can also be used to associate a user with a pricing level. Use a role management plugin like User Role Editor to establish custom roles, which you can give to a user or class of users. Then you can associate that role with a Maximum Purchase Rule. So when the user logs into your site, their Role interacts with the appropriate Rule.

How does the rule choose to examine the cart? [Search Criteria – Pro Plugin]

  • By cart contents
  • For a single product
  • For a single product’s variations
  • By Product Category or Maximum Purchase Category, and/or By Role/Membership

=> Maximum Purchase Pro Plugin

How is the rule applied to the cart search results? [Rule applied to]

  • All : work with the total of the units/prices
  • Each : apply the rule to each product in the Rule Population
  • Any : Same as each, but limits the rule testing to the first X number of products.

Rule Applies To Either:

  • Units Quantity Amount
  • Price Amount

A sample of a maximum purchase rule:

  • If the purchaser is a Subscriber – [search criteria:Subscriber]
  • The maximum total for all purchases – [rule applied to: all]
  • Must be greater than $20. – [price amount: $20]

Checkout Error Messaging

At checkout, the rules are tested against the cart contents. If products are found in error, an error message (in two possible locations) will be displayed. The error situation must be resolved, before the customer is allowed to leave the checkout and proceed to payment.

Error messaging css can be customized using the custom css option on the Rule Options Settings screen. There are also currency sign options, and a comprehensive debugging mode option.

Checkout Error Message Formats

  • Text-based descriptive format
  • Table-based format

Rule Selection fields are disabled, and its unclear why. Editing the HTML in Wordpress to remove disabled=”disabled” got past this. But once a rule is set up, it doesn’t do anything. Useless.

Plugin does exactly what it was built to do and some! Very slick and intuitive interface makes interaction cake! I had a bit of an issue that turned out to be user error, and vark responded very quickly. Highly recommend this plugin!

UPDATE: I have been using this plugin (Pro version) for several years now. It works absolutely perfect and have never had any issues. Props to the author and I hope this plugin stays updated forever. Thanks again ————————————————————————– First off, I left this comment for another limit plugin by mistake. I intended it for this one the VarkTech Maximum Purchase for WooCommerce. I have purchased several and these different limit plugins and got confused about what plugin I was reviewing.(My bad) ————————————————————————– I have been using the premium version of this (VarkTechplugin) for the last several months. It works exactly as described. I have purchased two other similar plugins on code canyon and neither worked. Requested support for this plugin twice since I purchased and Mark responded immediately and helped solve my problem. Can’t say enough great things about this plugin and support. Worth every penny. Keep up the excellent work! Thank you Alec

I needed a plugin to limit purchases on my website (believe it or not). I have the Woo Min/Max plugin, but it doesn’t work with categories. I wanted something that was up-to-date with the latest WooCommerce. Normally I don’t go for plugins that have PRO versions, but I decided to give this one a try as the freebie didn’t quite meet my needs. Have no fears. This plugin is well-written and WORKS. I contacted the plug-in support on the vendor’s website, as I wasn’t sure if it would work in my particular situation. To my surprise, a response was in my inbox almost immediately (I’m in Canada, they are in NZ). I would definitely recommend this plugin. 5 stars well-earned. I don’t mind paying for a well-written plugin.
