Minimum Checkout Amount

Minimum Checkout Amount helps WooCommerce store owners enforce a minimum order requirement.
If a customer’s cart does not reach the required minimum amount, the plugin will:

• Show a clear error message on the cart page
• Block checkout until the requirement is met
• Optionally include taxes in the calculation
• Allow excluding specific users from the minimum requirement
• Automatically exclude Administrators and Shop Managers

This plugin is lightweight, fast, and fully compatible with WooCommerce HPOS.
