One-time access should mean exactly that, and now, it finally does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>No more duplicate purchases:<\/strong> Customers can\u2019t \u201caccidentally\u201d buy the same product twice with the same email; it\u2019s automatically blocked. Less confusion for them and less time fixing support tickets.<\/li><li><strong>Prevent abuse of one-time offers and access:<\/strong> Keeps one-time products truly one-time. Stops users from gaming your system for extra access.<\/li><li><strong>More control over how your products are consumed: <\/strong>You decide how your product is accessed, and Selar enforces it for you, without extra tools.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>How to Enable This Feature<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With just one setting, protect your products and streamline your customer experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the product edit\/create page<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/selar.com\/361c62f0-bb20-4ab9-b260-793d114902b9\" width=\"413\" height=\"516\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Open the Advanced Options tab and tick \u201cEnable this restriction\u201d under the section that says \u201climit product purchase per email\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/selar.com\/5621c38b-6a4c-455d-9427-86d44296e34c\" width=\"437\" height=\"545\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Click Update Product<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/selar.com\/52378376-1b7e-4374-bfc3-62def4e172eb\" width=\"479\" height=\"598\"><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once enabled, Selar will automatically block repeat purchases using the same email address, helping you reduce duplicate orders and protect your product access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Use Case: Protecting a License Key Product<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say you sell a design software license key for \u20a610,000. This product should only be purchased once per customer. Without this feature, someone could buy the license key multiple times using the same email, either intentionally or by mistake, costing you more time, money, and support effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By enabling \u201cLimit Product Purchase Per Email,\u201d Selar blocks any second purchase attempt using that same email. It\u2019s a simple step that protects your product, keeps delivery clean, and ensures fair use across your customer base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-accent-background-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/selar.com\/login\">Try it out now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a creator or digital seller, you want to be in control of how your products are accessed, especially when&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":7767,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_ap_featured_post":false},"categories":[146],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/blog-media.selar.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.png","views":2211,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v14.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>New Feature: Set Purchase Limits for Your One-Time Access Products - Selar Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn how to use Selar\u2019s new feature to prevent duplicate purchases of your digital products.
