See every featureDemandLoop helps merchants recover sales lost when products sell out. Add a lightweight ‘Notify me’ widget to collect shoppers and automatically notify them when products or variants are restocked. Each alert shows attributed revenue, so merchants can see which notifications drive orders and which items have the highest demand. Easy setup with Online Store 2.0. Notify via email or web push.
Restock Pro helps merchants recover demand when products sell out. Shoppers can join a waitlist from the product page, and Restock Pro emails them when that item or variant is back in stock. Merchants manage waitlists in the app, review demand by product, and customise the storefront widget and restock email. Setup uses a theme app embed, so merchants can enable it without editing theme code.
