Qtyra Quantity Rules & Tiered Pricing adds minimum, maximum, step and default quantity rules to WooCommerce and enforces them on every path to the cart: the product page, the shop grid, carousels, the block cart and checkout, and the Store API. Pro adds quantity-based pricing and wholesale tooling.

 

## Requirements

 
 

|  | Minimum |
| --- | --- |
| WordPress | 6.2 |
| WooCommerce | 7.1 (tested up to 11.1) |
| PHP | 7.4 |

 
 

Works with classic and block themes, the Cart & Checkout blocks, HPOS and the product block editor.

 

## Install the free version

 
1. 1
   In your WordPress admin go to **Plugins → Add New** and search for *Qtyra Quantity Rules & Tiered Pricing*.
2. 2
   Click **Install Now**, then **Activate**.
3. 3
   On the screen that appears choose **Allow & Continue** (recommended: you get security and update notices) or **Skip**. Either way the plugin works fully.
4. 4
   You land on **WooCommerce → Settings → Quantity & Pricing**. That is home.

 
  
**Info**Already bought Pro? Skip the free version and go straight to [Activating your Pro licence](https://plugstack.dev/docs/qtyra-quantity-rules-tiered-pricing/activate-pro-licence/): the Pro build contains everything.
 
 

## Your first rule in 60 seconds

 
1. 1
   **WooCommerce → Settings → Quantity & Pricing → General.** Set *Default minimum quantity* to `2` and *Default step* to `2`. Save.
2. 2
   Open any product on the front end. The quantity field now starts at 2, the +/- buttons move in twos, and a hint under the field reads *“Minimum order: 2 · Sold in multiples of 2”*.
3. 3
   Type `3` and press Add to cart. It is refused with a clear message, on the product page, in the block cart, and even if the request is sent directly to the Store API.

 

## Where things live

 
 

| Screen | What you do there |
| --- | --- |
| WooCommerce → Settings → Quantity & Pricing | Store-wide defaults, front-end behaviour, customer messages, Pro sections |
| Product → Edit → Quantity & Pricing tab | Per-product and per-variation rules (and tiers in Pro) |
| Products → Categories → Edit | Category rules (Pro) |
| WooCommerce → Quantity & Pricing | Licence & status: what is unlocked, upgrade, manage licence |
| WooCommerce → Bulk Quantity Rules | Bulk editor and CSV import/export (Pro) |
