Updated October 2026
KOR Order Limits is the cheaper paid option; OrderRules covers more rule types. Both have a free plan. KOR's free plan blocks up to 100 over-limit carts, and its paid plans run $3.99β$5.99/month; the $5.99 PRO plan adds per-customer order limits, customer-tag rules and CSV import. OrderRules adds automated store hours, a holiday calendar, storewide daily / weekly / monthly caps, and per-customer caps by spend or weight β and its free Starter plan has no blocked-cart allowance to run out. Pick KOR if product and customer quantity limits are all you need; pick OrderRules if your store also has a capacity or opening-hours constraint.

Per-checkout vs per-customer
KOR's PRO plan limits orders per customer by duration, and its listing advertises quantity limits per customer by day, month, year or lifetime. OrderRules does the same across orders, adds spend and weight caps and weekly or rolling 30-day windows, and counts by Shopify customer ID β so shoppers must log in while customer limits are on.

- Established install base with 150+ App Store reviews to consult before committing.

- Automated store hours in your timezone, with one window per day that can run past midnight.
- One-click holiday calendar import for 16 countries.

- Dynamic storefront messaging with the {REM_QTY} live counter for FOMO/urgency.
- Delivery dates, time slots and per-slot caps on Advanced ($19.99/mo) β KOR doesn't schedule delivery.

Which App Should You Pick?
By use case β based on rule type and store profile.
| Your store | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Budget store, basic per-product min/max only | KOR | If all you need is per-product min/max + collection rules, KOR's free plan or $3.99/mo Basic plan is a low-cost, mature option. |
| Bakery / Cafe with daily production limits | OrderRules | Daily storewide caps + holiday calendar + store hours. KOR has none of these. |
| Restaurant with shift-based lunch / dinner ordering | OrderRules | Store hours close checkout outside opening times; Advanced time slots cap orders per pickup or delivery slot. KOR has neither. |
| Limited drop / streetwear with anti-reseller needs | Either | Both limit a customer across orders at checkout β KOR on its $5.99 PRO plan. OrderRules adds spend caps, weekly and rolling 30-day windows, and a store-wide cap for the drop. |
| B2B store with customer-tag pricing tiers | KOR (Pro), or Shopify B2B | KOR supports customer-tag rules on its paid tier; OrderRules doesn't target customer tags. Shopify's native B2B catalogs also cover tier-specific minimums on every plan. |
| Need scheduling, daily caps, AND customer rules together | OrderRules | OrderRules combines all three rule families. KOR would need a separate app for store hours and store-wide caps. |
| Minimums or case packs only for B2B buyers, or a minimum order value | Native Shopify | B2B catalog quantity rules (every plan since April 2026) and Checkout Blocks order value limits cover these without an app. Add an app when you need limits across orders, daily caps or store hours. |
Final Verdict
KOR Order Limits is a solid budget pick for Shopify stores that need product, collection and per-customer quantity rules β a free plan (up to 100 blocked carts) and paid plans from $3.99/month make it one of the cheapest mature options in the category, and its $5.99 PRO plan adds per-customer order limits and CSV import. However, KOR has no storewide daily caps, no store hours and no holiday calendar, and its customer limits don't cap spend. For stores with capacity or opening-hours constraints (bakeries, restaurants, meal prep), OrderRules is the better fit despite a higher Pro price, because it covers the rule types KOR doesn't.
