Description
WooCommerce Default Quantity controls quantity fields in WooCommerce, setting default, minimum, maximum, and step increments for individual products, entire categories, or based on the logged-in user’s role. Developed by Barn2, it serves B2B and wholesale stores that need to enforce fixed multiple orders (boxes, bundles, dozens) or minimum volumes before checkout, preventing customers from buying a single unit when the store only sells starting from a certain quantity.
Main Features
- Custom default quantity: sets the pre-filled value in the add to cart button field.
- Minimum and maximum per product: blocks orders below the minimum volume or above the configured maximum limit.
- Multiples increments: forces customers to buy in jumps (6 by 6, 12 by 12) instead of loose units.
- Global or segmented rules: applies limits across the entire store, specific categories, or selected products.
- User role differentiation: maintains distinct rules for standard customers, wholesalers, and logged-in partners.
Benefits of WooCommerce Default Quantity
- Standardizes wholesale orders: ensures each purchase respects the operation’s minimum batch.
- Reduces stock errors: eliminates fractioned orders that don’t match supplier packaging.
- Speeds up recurring checkout: with quantity pre-filled, customers click and complete in fewer steps.
- Increases average order value: minimum rules push orders toward more profitable volumes.
Who Is It For?
- WooCommerce B2B and wholesale stores with minimum order requirements.
- Distributors selling in boxes, bundles, or sealed packs.
- E-commerces for beverages, food, cosmetics, and supplies sold in multiples.
Recommended for WooCommerce store owners who need to enforce firm quantity rules — minimums, maximums, and multiples — without manually editing each product.
