Minimum order amount

Setting a minimum order amount prevents customers from checking out unless their cart meets a specified subtotal. This is useful for wholesale stores that require minimum purchase quantities or order values.

How it works

When a minimum order amount is set:

• The checkout button is disabled if the cart subtotal is below the minimum

• A message displays informing customers of the minimum required

• Customers can continue shopping to meet the minimum

• Once the minimum is met, the checkout button becomes active

Examples

$50.00	5000
$100.00	10000
$250.00	25000
$500.00	50000

Important notes

• The minimum is based on the cart subtotal before taxes and shipping

• The minimum applies to all customers unless using custom code

• Discounts are applied before checking the minimum

• The amount must be entered in cents (multiply dollars by 100)

For more advanced minimum order rules (e.g., different minimums for different customer groups), consider using Shopify Functions or a wholesale app.
