How it sells itself

Never have a disappointed customer leaving your store when product runs of stock. Notify Me button automatically shows on product pages when product is sold out. Collect email address of potential customers and we will alert them with email once you have restocked your product. Multiple levels of customization – from the look of the button to the content of alert email.

When a product sells out, shoppers may leave and not return. PluginOS Back in Stock Alert adds a customizable Notify Me button to out-of-stock product pages, so shoppers can subscribe to the exact variant they want. Once inventory restocks, the app automatically sends a back-in-stock email using a template you control, capturing demand you would otherwise lose.

Key points
  • Notify Me button automatically appears on product page if you run out of stock.
  • Customize Notify Me button and popup form in your Shopify Theme Editor.
  • No need to setup or maintain email server, we take care of email alerts.
  • Customize details of alert emails sent out to your customers.
  • Automatically notify customers when out-of-stock products are back
  • Notify Me” button with customizable text, color, and border radius.
