How it sells itself

Stockouts happen silently. Customers can't buy what's out of stock, so you lose revenue without realizing it. Low Stock Alerts Pro fixes this by sending real-time notifications the moment your inventory drops below your set threshold. You control when alerts arrive (quiet hours), where they go (email, SMS, or WhatsApp), and can reorder directly from the alert.

StockGuard Alerts helps Shopify merchants stay ahead of inventory shortages with real-time low stock monitoring. Set custom stock thresholds, receive email notifications when products run low, and quickly identify items that need restocking. Export inventory reports to CSV and manage stock more efficiently with a clean, easy-to-use interface designed for everyday workflows.

Key points
  • Get instant alerts via email, SMS, or WhatsApp when inventory runs low.
  • Set thresholds by quantity or percentage. Customize per product anytime.
  • Click reorder links in alerts to order stock from your suppliers instantly.
  • Set quiet hours to control when you receive alerts. No alerts at night.
  • Real-time low stock alerts for products and variants
  • Custom stock thresholds with email notifications
  • Export low inventory reports to CSV in one click
