Technical Definition & Architecture
B2B retailers, wholesale vendors, and stores offering bundle incentives often require minimum order thresholds before a specific unit price takes effect. The eligibleQuantity property conveys these quantity parameters clearly to search engines.
Represented as a QuantitativeValue node, eligibleQuantity can specify minValue, maxValue, or exact unitCount. This prevents search crawlers from misinterpreting a wholesale case price as a single-unit retail price.
When search engines evaluate wholesale or volume offerings on Shopify, pairing eligibleQuantity with clear priceCurrency declarations helps preserve accurate pricing display in commercial search results.
