WooCommerce: Set Minimum Checkout Order Amount

Shop managers sometimes need to set a mimimum checkout order amount before customers can purchase items.

This code snippet allows you to programatically set a minimum checkout order amount, which is checked before a customer places an order.

It outputs a customisable error message to the screen, stopping the checkout process until more products are added to the cart, and the cart total is above the set minimum amount.

Where To Put The Code Snippet?

This code snippet should go in your active theme’s functions.php file.

Add it to the bottom of the file, before any closing ?> characters.

It’s always a good idea to take a backup of your functions.php file in case anything goes wrong – you can just copy the old code back in again.
