Why merchants need this

The challenge and how Nex MOQ solves it

The Problem

Without order limits

You offer free shipping to compete, but a customer orders one $15 item that costs $12 to ship. Your $3 margin doesn't even cover the packaging. Free shipping is eating your profits.

This costs you revenue, customers, or compliance — every unprotected order is a risk

The Solution

With Nex MOQ

Set a minimum cart amount that ensures every order covers its shipping cost. Use AND conditions to set different thresholds by country — e.g., Country = US AND min $50, Country = Canada AND min $75. Customers see a clear message: "Add $X more for free shipping."

Set the rule once — Nex MOQ enforces it at checkout automatically
