How it sells itself

Restockd turns every sold-out variant into a signal you can act on. Shoppers tap "Notify me" once and pick every size, color, or option they want. You see live demand on a clean dashboard showing what's most wanted, who's waiting, and how much to reorder. Automatic emails in 24 languages ship the moment you restock.

Every sold-out product is lost revenue unless you capture demand. RestockGuard automatically collects customer emails on out-of-stock products and brings them back the moment stock returns. Notify shoppers only when their exact variant is available, improve conversion rates, and recover missed sales with no manual work.

Key points
  • One-tap multi-variant waitlist. One signup covers every size.
  • Reorder signals, not just counts. Real demand data per variant.
  • Live waitlist counter on every sold-out page. Built-in social proof that sells.
  • Capture demand on sold-out products with a “Notify Me” widget
  • Send automatic back-in-stock alerts to bring customers back to buy
  • Variant-level notifications for size, colour and product options
  • Track recovered revenue and conversions in your dashboard
