Max Spend Limit Per User For Woocommerce

Max Spend Limit Per User for Woocommerce is a powerful plugin that allows you to set a maximum spending limit for customers on your website. It helps you control and manage your user spending on your WooCommerce store, ensuring that they stay within their allocated budget throughout a defined period.

Please Note: that customers are unable to modify their spending limits. Additionally, it’s important to mention that the plugin does not currently provide real-time spending limit notifications. For instance, if a user has already spent $90 out of a $100 limit within a 30-day period and attempts to make a purchase of $50 within the same 30 days period, the plugin allows the checkout process to proceed. However, please be aware that after the order is placed, the customer will not be able to make any new orders until the spending limit is reset or increased by the store owner.

Key Features

1. Set Maximum Spend Amount: Easily define the maximum spend amount for individual users using custom fields in their user profiles. This allows you to tailor spending limits to meet the unique requirements of each user.

2. Flexible Time Periods: Specify the spend limit period in days, allowing you to define the timeframe within which the spending is monitored. This enables you to enforce spending limits over specific durations, such as monthly, weekly, or custom periods.

3. Real-time Spending Monitoring: The plugin continuously tracks the total amount spent by users within the specified time period. It includes orders with completed, processing, and on-hold status in the calculation, providing an accurate overview of user spending. (We will include the control of order status that count towards the spending limits in the next update.)

4. Notification System: When a user reaches or surpasses their maximum spend limit, the plugin displays a notice during the checkout process. Users are promptly notified of their spending status, encouraging them to take appropriate action.

5. Contact Information: The error message includes a call to action, prompting users to get in touch with you for assistance in extending their spending limit. This provides a seamless way for users to request additional budgets or discuss their specific needs.

6. If a user has already reached or exceeded their maximum spending limit, the plugin intelligently hides the payment options, billing section, and order review section during the checkout process. This proactive measure ensures that users cannot proceed with placing an order, effectively preventing any potential overspending and promoting responsible financial management.

7. User-friendly Interface: The plugin integrates seamlessly with the WooCommerce user profile page, allowing the admin to easily view and modify the user’s maximum spend amount and spend limit period. This ensures a smooth user experience and promotes transparency.
