Can you set-up a minimum order qty on one item only? I have several items in my store but only one that i need a minimum on.

Thank you for sharing your use case here @keicollective! We appreciate you going into detail on how you'd like to use this feature, and use cases like this help get these features developed 👍

I also need this feature.  I am a t-shirt decorator.  Some items I embroider, 1 at a time.  Some items I screen print with a minimum of 24.  25 or more is ok, 23 or less is not.  The embroidered items I can produce 1 piece at a time, but the screen printed ones are only cost effective to produce in bulk.

Why is SQUARE so far behind?? Literally everything I want to do, that others have been asking for years for still isn't possible. This should be a simple request to action and have available!!?? Yet another reason I will bet taking my business elsewhere because its another simple feature SQUARE lacks!!

All I want to do is be able to setup to sell an item (of low value) and apply a minimum order quantity to this item. EG. tea light candles, I want the customer to order 5 minimum. 

Square will say to setup as modifies and apply minimum order quantity but then I can't track the stock levels! If only I could setup as a variation, wait I can, then I get stock levels but no minimum order quantity.

I am also looking to be able to have a minimum item for ordering. A price minimum isn't good enough as our prices are different per product. I want a minimum order of two dozen cupcakes.

Hi and welcome to the Seller Community! 👋

This would be considered a feature request at this time, @AngelicakesSJ.

In the meantime, our Square Online support team would be able to look into this with you and see if there are any available workarounds.  When you have a moment, please reach out directly by logging into your Square account and heading here.

There are no work arounds the only minimum Square has is the total of the order for delivery, it is crazy in 2023 we do not have more order minimum options even a price minimum per item would be great but every store out there from Wix to Shopify to woocommerce ...

Have you heard any update on this? We have the same situation where certain items require extra effort to create.  So if you order at least e.g. 3 items of the same product, then you can order any upper quantity. You just have to order a min of 3 of the same SKU. It has nothing to do with the total amount of the order. 
on the product page where it shows quantity 1 (with +/-), we would want it to default to the minimum allowed. If the customer tried to click (-) to go back from 3, it would not allow it. I guess you could have an upper limit option, but we don’t need that function.

thanks

Add my name to the chorus of people that need a quantity minimum such a basic feature that every online store I have dealt with has this feature and still waiting with 3k views and 2 years later there are many threads on this

I also wish we had an update to share here too, @wheatfire. I understand your frustration not having an update here yet, and that you need to make the best decision for your business. I will continue to highlight this feedback with our product team!

I think part of the problem is that Squarespace has partnered with a company to do fulfillment of print on demand products. A lot of the features the software should not be lacking at this point are a result of Squarespace wanting to give exclusive features to third parties and partners they have deals with.  I make and sell my own t-shirts, I don't need a fulfillment partner.  I need a website that has the ability to sell t-shirts with mixes sizes and quantities in the same order and also have the ability to set minimums on individual products.  You can do both these things if you let their partner do the fulfillment, but that's my entire business.
