<p>Group Buying for WooCommerce enables you to offer group-buy deals on specific products and entice your customers to purchase in large quantities as a group to get discounts. Make your customers your brand ambassadors as they share your product to complete the group and qualify for a discount.</p>
<p>Group Buying is a must have extension for merchants dealing in products that can only be sold in groups, e.g., group classes, safari and tour tickets, and more.</p>

<p><strong>Product level settings:</strong></p>
<p>Looking to enable group buying only on specific products? Using the product-level settings, you can set up group buy right from the product edit sheet. Each product can have different group buy discounts and other settings as per the product requirements.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734004683081" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Group-buying-on-product-level.png" alt="" width="980" height="888" /></p>
<h2>Allow customers to create public or private groups:</h2>
<p>With Group Buying for WooCommerce, you can allow your customers to join or create either a public or private group.</p>
<p><strong>Public group:<br />
</strong>Public groups are available for all customers in your store. Other customers can participate in the group by purchasing products at a discounted group rate.</p>
<p><strong>Private group:<br />
</strong>The private group is visible to selected users only. While creating a private group, your customer can add the email addresses of multiple people and send them an invitation to join his group by purchasing products at a discount rate.</p>

<h2>Add groups creation limit:</h2>

<p>You can set a group target in terms of sales or the number of members who must join to complete the sales target.</p>

</ul>
