Why merchants need this

The challenge and how Nex MOQ solves it

The Problem

Without order limits

Export regulations restrict certain products from being shipped in large quantities to specific countries. A single violation can result in massive fines and loss of export privileges.

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

With Nex MOQ

Use Nex MOQ AND conditions to combine Country with Product tag = "export-controlled" in a single rule. Use OR to group restricted countries — Country = X OR Country = Y — under one limit. Block checkout when a customer tries to ship more than the allowed amount to a restricted country.

Set the rule once — Nex MOQ enforces it at checkout automatically
Takes under 2 minutes

How to set it up

No code required. Just create a rule and activate it.

1

Create a rule with type "Maximum quantity per product"

2

Set the export-allowed maximum (e.g., 2 units)

3

Add country conditions for restricted destinations

4

For fully blocked countries, set the maximum to 0
