Create customer limit
Learn how to create customer limits in the Order Limit App by using tags to set purchase limits based on total quantity or order value, ensuring a balanced shopping experience.
Setting a customer limit helps you manage how many products or the total value of orders a specific customer can purchase, identified by customer tags. This feature is perfect for tailoring purchase limits based on different customer groups, such as VIP members or wholesale clients. By using tags, you can ensure that different customer segments adhere to the limits you set, whether it’s by total quantity or total value in a single order.

To create a Customer limit, please click the 'Select' button under the 'Customer Limit' feature box.
