Collection Limits

Limit Entire Groups of Products

Instead of setting limits product by product, you can apply a single rule to an entire collection. This is especially useful for sale items, seasonal products, or any group that shares the same constraint.

Collection-Wide Limits

How to Set Up

1. Go to Product Limits
2. Click Add Product Limit
3. Instead of selecting an individual product, choose a Collection
4. Set the max quantity for that collection
5. Click Save

Example: Sale Collection

Collection:  Sale Items
Max:         5 items from this collection per order

Result:
  Customer adds 3 sale items: OK
  Customer adds 5 sale items: OK
  Customer adds 6 sale items: Blocked at checkout

The limit applies to the total number of items from the collection in a single order, regardless of which specific products they are.

Customer Segment Rules for Collections

Combine collection limits with customer tags for tiered access:

Collection:  Wholesale Items

Standard customers: Max 5 items per order
VIP customers (tag "VIP"): Max 10 items per order
Wholesale customers (tag "Wholesale"): Min 20 items per order

How to Set This Up

1. Go to Product Limits and add a collection-based rule
2. Choose Apply to customer tag
3. Enter the tag (for example, "VIP")
4. Set the quantities for that group
5. Repeat for other customer segments
6. Click Save

What Customers See

At checkout, if the collection limit is exceeded:

"You can add a maximum of 5 items from the Sale collection per order. Please remove some items to continue."

Tips

• Use collection limits for promotional events to prevent abuse
• Collection limits and individual product limits both apply -- if a product has its own limit and also belongs to a limited collection, both rules are enforced
