<h2>Restrict Purchases by User Role, Specific Customers, and Quantity Rules</h2>
 
Sometimes you need to restrict certain products for user roles. This plugin makes it easy. 
Once installed, you’ll find a new “Purchase Restriction” tab under WooCommerce settings. From there, you can create unlimited rules to control product visibility and purchase access based on
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">User roles (like wholesale customers, members, or logged-in users)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Specific selected user role </li>
<li>Specific selected individual user</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Product categories or types</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"> minimum product order quantity rules</li>
</ul>
If a user doesn’t meet the conditions, they won’t see the Add to Cart button, price, or even the product itself (based on your settings). You can also set custom messages for restricted users.
Perfect for B2B stores, membership-based shops, and anyone who wants more control over who buys what.
Purchase Restriction by User Role 
with woocommerce restricted products. You can easily manage purchase access for customers, administrators, authors, and other user roles through a simple interface that lets you activate, edit, or delete rules as needed.

<h2>Conditional Purchase Rules</h2>
With the WooCommerce Restriction Rules plugin, you have full control over who can buy what in your store. Set minimum purchase quantities for specific products or categories and define which user roles or specific individual users are allowed to access these products. You can easily manage which users can purchase certain items and enforce specific quantity requirements for them.
<img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-18734006112181" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Easily-create-conditional-purchase-rules-for-products-and-categories.-Select-whether-the-rule-applies-to-specific-user-roles-or-individual-users-and-set-minimum-quantity-requirements.png?w=980" alt="Easily create conditional purchase rules for products and categories. Select whether the rule applies to specific user roles or individual users, and set minimum quantity requirements." width="980" height="460" />
Purchase Access Control 
Non selected users lose the ability to buy restricted products because the Add to Cart directive and quantity tool disappear while showing the “You are not allowed to purchase this product” message.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005242453" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/screenshot-nexolistech.com-2025.04.30-20_17_49.png?w=896" alt="Purchase Access Control" width="896" height="454" />
Minimum product order quantities
This plugin allows If a user tries to purchase less than the minimum quantity set by the store admin, an error message will appear directly on the product page. This ensures that customers meet the required quantity before they can add the product to their cart.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005242635" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/screenshot-nexolistech.com-2025.05.01-01_00_37.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="454" />
Cart and Checkout Quantity Validation 
You can set custom messages to show on the cart and checkout page for customers who buy less than the quantity you set.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005242452" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/screenshot-nexolistech.com-2025.04.30-20_19_07.png?w=896" alt="Enforce Minimum Order Quantities" width="896" height="454" />

Restrict Product Purchases

Restrict Product Purchase for WooCommerce lets you limit product access by user role or membership plan. Only users with specific access can view or purchase restricted products.

Paid Memberships Pro

<h3>IMPORTANT UPDATE</h3>
Since PMPro version 2.9 was released on July 18, 2022, this plugin is no longer needed to manage user fields. With PMPro 2.9+, you can manage user fields from the Memberships > Settings > User Fields page in the WP admin dashboard. Any custom code written to work with Register Helper will still work as intended with only PMPro 2.9 installed.
This plugin will no longer be maintained.
If you were using the member directory features, you should use the <a href="https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/member-directory/" rel="nofollow ugc">PMPro Member Directory plugin</a>.
If you were using the Register Form module with PMPro, you should consider using the <a href="https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/pmpro-signup-shortcode/" rel="nofollow ugc">PMPro Sign Up Shortcode plugin</a>).
If you were using the Register Form without PMPro, you can continue to use this plugin, but note that it will no longer be maintained.
If you were using the Restrict by Email/Username feature, you should use <a href="https://github.com/strangerstudios/pmpro-snippets-library/blob/dev/checkout/restrict-checkout-by-email-or-username.php" rel="nofollow ugc">this code snippet instead</a>.
<h3>The most popular WordPress plugin for custom user fields and member profiles.</h3>

<li>Captured on the user’s frontend profile page.</li>
<li>Managed in the WordPress admin area on the “Your Profile” screen (for users).</li>
<li>Edited by site admins only on the “Edit User Profile” screen in the WordPress admin.</li>

<a href="https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/pmpro-register-helper-add-checkout-and-profile-fields/?utm_source=wordpress-org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=pmpro-regiser-helper" rel="nofollow ugc">Learn more about custom user profile fields and member registration fields in our documentation site</a>.
<h3>Supports Multiple Field Types</h3>
Choose from a variety of popular user field types to capture additional information about your members. Fields can be customized by the member’s selected or active membership level. The most popular field types include:
<ul>
<li>Text and Textarea</li>
<li>Select and Select2 (multi-select)</li>
<li>Checkbox, Grouped Checkboxes, and Radio Select</li>
<li>Date</li>
<li>File Upload</li>
<li>Read-only</li>
<li>HTML (generates any desired HTML)</li>
<li>Hidden</li>
</ul>
<h4>Adding Fields For Specific Membership Levels</h4>
This plugin is built for Paid Memberships Pro, the top WordPress membership plugin that’s 100% free. You can add your fields for all members, or choose to show a field for specific members only. For example, allow your Premium level members to add a full length bio and upload a resume, while your Starter members can only add a brief bio and no file upload.
Custom user fields are a way to gather more information about your members and create a more tailored, premium experience.
<h4>Conditional User Field Logic</h4>
Any registered field can be a conditional field. These fields use JavaScript to dynamically hide or show based on another field’s value.
<h4>Create a Public or Private Member Directory</h4>
Many sites use these custom fields to build a member directory for site visitors or members. You can customize which fields are displayed based on membership level. Read the <a href="https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/member-directory/?utm_source=wordpress-org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=pmpro-register-helper" rel="nofollow ugc">Member Directory and Profiles for PMPro</a> documentation page for more information on this feature.
<h4>Restrict Membership Checkout by Email Address or Username</h4>
Add your list of custom “approved” email addresses or usernames to the “Restrict by Email” or “Restrict by Username” field on the Memberships > Settings > Membership Levels > Edit Level admin page.
