Buyer Support
Seller Support
We’re excited to announce the release of Purchase Limits, giving FastSpring users more control over how their offers reach buyers. One-per-player starter bundles, capped promotional items, and limited-run drops have become some of the most effective tools in games and ecommerce. And now, you can enforce them with confidence.
With our latest release, you can cap how many units a single buyer can purchase, enforced automatically and in real time at every checkout. Rather than checking a single cart, FastSpring follows the buyer. That means we track cumulative purchases across orders, sessions, devices, and payment methods so the product limits you set are the ones your buyers actually get.
With Purchase Limits, you stay in control of how many of a given product are sold, and your buyers still get a smooth, hassle-free path to checkout.
Built With Game Publishers
Nowhere is this challenge more common than in games, where a single player buying past a cap can tip an in-game economy out of balance. Then, an unhealthy in-game economy can easily turn into lower player counts and less revenue for the publisher.
We built Purchase Limits alongside our publisher partners to give them the confidence that they can monetize effectively while still delivering a great player experience. And the same protection extends to any seller running limited or promotional offers.
Why Purchase Limits Matter
- Offer Integrity: Keep limited offers genuinely limited. Purchase Limits prevents a handful of buyers from exceeding a cap and breaking an in-game economy or absorbing a promotion meant for your whole audience.
- Fair Access: Give every buyer an equal shot. When a cap follows the buyer instead of the cart, “one per customer” actually means one per customer.
- Frictionless Enforcement: Stay invisible until it counts. Buyers who never approach your purchase cap move through the checkout without ever seeing a limit or wall. The only people who will see it will be those who are actively trying to exceed it. And for those who accidentally hit the cap, they’ll receive a clear, localized explanation rather than a confusing error.
- Operational Efficiency: Skip the build. With FastSpring’s purchase limits feature, you don’t need to build or maintain a separate enforcement system. Instead, you share the rule with FastSpring and it runs in the background, freeing your team to focus on monetization strategy.
