Restricting Checkout to a Single Item

Restricting Checkout to a Single Item

This article explains how to restrict customers to only one line item per order using the Maximum basket items setting available in the Cart Settings. This configuration is ideal for scenarios where you want to limit purchases and simplify the checkout process.

When this setting is enabled, customers can only add one distinct product to their basket. Although the system may still display a success notification when an additional item is attempted, only one item will appear in the cart.

Recent updates have addressed some messaging concerns by displaying a brief notification on the cart page if the maximum item limit is reached. This guide details how to configure these settings and offers additional tips to ensure a smooth customer journey.

Use cases

• Enforcing single-item purchases during limited-time offers or promotions.
• Restricting purchases of high-value or sensitive products to avoid bulk orders.
• Simplifying the checkout process by limiting shopping cart complexity.
