🌟 Exploring the demo store
Slurp Club is a small ramen-pantry brand we run on Shopify with DC Order Limits installed. Every rule you'll encounter is enforced live by the app, in the cart and again at checkout, exactly as it would be on your own store. You can test per-customer lifetime limits, quantity increments, weight caps, mixed-cart restrictions, back-in-stock alerts, and payment rules.
The homepage has a card for every rule. Each card is preset to a quantity the rule refuses: click Add to cart and DC Order Limits blocks it and shows the exact message your customers would see. Then follow the steps on the card to fix the cart and watch it go through.
🧪 How to see each rule type in action
🔁 Lifetime customer purchase limits
The Golden Week Ramen Kit is a limited collab capped at 4 per order, and 4 per customer, lifetime. The per-order cap blocks a fifth kit in your cart right away, while the customer purchase limit keeps counting across every order a customer ever places, so nobody can come back tomorrow for four more. This is the rule merchants use for drops, collabs, and anything scalpers love.
🧮 Quantity increments
The Tonkotsu Cup ships in trays, so it can only be purchased in multiples of 6. Add a few to your cart and try to check out: it only goes through at 6, 12, 18, and so on. Increments keep packaging simple and bulk orders consistent.
📦 Maximum quantity per order
The Mystery Flavor Sachet is a $1 sample, so it's capped at 2 per order. Add a third and checkout is blocked. Caps like this keep samples and loss-leaders from being cleaned out by a single order.
⚖️ Weight limits
The Bulk Kitchen items are heavy: Koshihikari Rice is 25 lb a sack, the White Miso Pail 22 lb. A courier cap limits every order to 100 lb total. Load up a cart past that and checkout stops until you lighten it. Weight rules keep orders inside what your carrier (or your packers) can actually handle.

🚫 Mixed-cart rules
Two are running in the store:
- Fragile can't ship with heavy. Put the Studio Ramen Bowl (fragile ceramic) in a cart with a Soy Sauce Tin or a bulk rice sack and checkout is blocked: they can't safely share a box.
- Refills require a starter kit. Broth Refill Pouches only check out if a Broth Lab Starter Kit is in the same cart, since the refills are useless without it.

💳 Payment rules at checkout
On orders of $400 or more, Cash on Delivery disappears from the payment options at checkout. Add nine Broth Lab Starter Kits ($405), go to checkout, and compare the payment step against a small order. Below $400, Cash on Delivery is offered again.
🔔 Back in Stock notifications
The Yuzu Shio Cup is sold out on purpose. Visit the product page and leave your email. When the product is restocked, everyone who signed up is notified automatically. This is DC Back in Stock, part of the same app.
🛠️ How the rules are built
Every rule on the demo store is set up in the DC Order Limits admin and runs as a Shopify Function. The theme only adds the cards that describe them. No theme code is needed:
- Set a rule in DC Order Limits. Pick the products or tags it applies to, or apply it to the whole cart, and set the limit in the app admin.
- Shopify Functions run it. The rule is checked when an item is added to the cart, and again at checkout.
- Shoppers see the message. When something is refused, the cart shows the app's message so the shopper knows what to change.
🕹️ Prefer a sandbox?
We also run an interactive playground version of Slurp Club where the same rules run right in your browser. It has a demo console for toggling each rule on and off, plus one-click scenarios that load a cart tripping exactly one rule, handy for quickly seeing a specific error message.
