Prestashop Limit Order Quantity | Cart Quantity Module

If you want to limit the quantity of any particular product that a user can purchase at a time, then Prestashop Limit Cart Quantity Module is a must-have for you. Our module is developed on a rules-based design that makes it very easy for merchants to apply rules according to their needs. You can create multiple rules to cater to different case scenarios. 

Admin can create a rule that applies to a single product or at the same time can also create a rule that will be applicable to whole categories. This is very useful if you are selling some high-value products that you want to limit per customer basis. This makes it easy for you to evenly sell your products to multiple customers so that a single customer does not get away with purchasing all of the stock at once. 

You can also make a rule that is applicable to specific customer groups. If you are offering services or products to b2b customers that can be a really useful feature for you. You can only sell large number of quantities to your b2b customers, normal users will be able to purchase a single product but b2b customers will have to buy products in quantity as specified by you in the backend.

Case Study: Whiskytime.ch x FME Modules

The Challenge: Stock Hoarding

As a seller of limited-edition whiskies, Whiskytime.ch struggled with "scalpers" buying out entire stocks of rare bottles. This led to:

• Unfair Distribution: Rare items were monopolized by a few buyers.
• Inventory Shocks: Sudden stockouts of high-demand products.
• Low Margins: Inefficient shipping costs on single, low-value accessory orders.

The Solution: Precise Purchase Rules

By implementing the FME Modules Limit Order Quantity module, the shop regained control over the checkout process:

1. Max Limits: Set "1 per customer" rules for rare vintage bottles.
2. Min Thresholds: Required minimum quantities for low-cost items to protect shipping margins.
3. Group Rules: Maintained strict caps for retail customers while allowing bulk orders for verified B2B partners.

The Results

• Fairer Access: 100% success in distributing limited releases to a wider customer base.
• Optimized AOV: Minimum order rules increased average order value and shipping efficiency.
• Stock Stability: Automated restrictions prevented bulk buyouts and unpredictable inventory gaps.

Final Verdict: The FME Modules Limit Order Quantity tool allowed Whiskytime.ch to protect its rarest inventory while ensuring a premium, fair shopping experience for all collectors.
