How it sells itself

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.

Helps merchants collect customer requests for sold-out products and price-drop alerts. Customers can join a waitlist from the storefront, and the app sends email or SMS notifications when inventory returns or prices change. Merchants can customize the widget, manage templates, review waitlist demand, track sent notifications, and see which products have the most customer interest.
