Rule Limit vs Action Limit
This limit relates to the rule in general. For repeated actions, you can also limit the number of times the action can occur per purchase. This limit is NOT reflected here. For example, you give members a gift for each $100 they spend, up to 2 times per purchase.
General Limit
