User Guide for Minimum Purchase Quantity ​

Minimum Purchase Quantity: We have introduced this new feature in our MultiVendor Marketplace App for Shopify.

What is the Minimum Purchase Quantity? ​

It is the minimum quantity of goods a customer needs to buy/order to make the purchase successful. If the customer is unable to meet the set requirement, the order can't be placed.

Need to implement the same? ​

  • Increase revenue by incentivizing your customers to place an order in bulk.
  • Products get sold quickly hence a great inventory turnover.
  • A minimum purchase quantity helps to ensure that there is sufficient demand for your products to start production.
