Why is my minimum quantity rule causing a permanent error?

Short answer: the rule’s Min and Max leave no quantity that is also a multiple of Quantity increments, so no cart can pass.

Cart page: a warning pop-up says the order amount must be at least $100.00

What your customers see on the storefront.

A Quantity Increment rule checks two things at once:

  1. The quantity is a multiple of Quantity increments.
  2. The quantity is between Min and Max.

Product page with an increment of 5: the quantity box starts at 10 and a guide explains the allowed quantities

If no multiple falls inside that range, the customer sees “Rule Quantity Increment: Not Satisfied” for every quantity, and the checkout button stays locked.

Quantity increments Min Max Valid quantities Result
6 6 60 6, 12, … 60 Works
6 7 empty 12, 18, … Works
6 6 10 6 Works, only 6 is allowed
6 8 11 none Error on every quantity
  1. Set Min to a multiple of Quantity increments, for example 12 for an increment of 6.
  2. Leave Max empty if you do not need an upper limit.
  3. Save the rule and reload the storefront.
