#Let’s understand it with an instance
Price of Product A: $500
Price of Product B: $1000
Minimum Purchase Amount: $600*
- Customer A adds Product A to Cart worth $500– FAILED TO CHECKOUT (as Product Price($500) < Minimum Purchase Amount ($600)
- Customer B adds Product B to Cart worth $1000–CHECKOUT SUCCESSFULLY (as Product Price($1000) > Minimum Purchase Amount ($600)
In order to display the checkout conditions on the Cart page, you need to add the codes to the suggested liquid files (as shown in the screenshot).
So, go to Multi-vendor Admin Panel and then
Configuration >>Instruction for Marketplace >> Scroll down to get the codes for “Seller’s Minimum Purchase Amount for Orders” >> Copy the code from there & add it to the instructed liquid files.
Once you add the codes to their respective liquid files, this will be the visibility of the cart page (Refer below screenshots).
In short, if the cart amount is equal or greater than the minimum purchase amount, the customer can proceed for checkout.
