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.

Stock Signal adds a Notify me button to sold-out product pages so shoppers can request restock emails. When an item is available again, it automatically emails interested shoppers with a link back to the product. Customize email templates, manage requests, and see which products shoppers want. A guided setup checklist and video help you enable the storefront widget.

Key points
  • Automatic Back-in-stock alerts for out-of-stock Shopify products
  • Notify Me form customers can join without an account. Customisable widget style
  • Subscriber variant-level list with filters and CSV export
  • Demand leaderboard by waitlist interest to see which products shoppers want
  • Collect back-in-stock alert requests on sold-out product pages
  • Send automatic and manual back-in-stock notifications
  • Customize alert settings, templates, and storefront widget behavior
  • Track shopper demand and notification activity in one dashboard
