How it sells itself

Safety Stock prevents overselling by keeping a buffer of inventory in reserve. Instead of waiting until stock hits zero, the app marks a product as sold out once its available quantity reaches the threshold you set, so the remaining units stay protected for in-store sales, samples, or pending orders.

Wholesale and online orders draw from the same stock, which can cause overselling. This app lets merchants reserve inventory for wholesale accounts and hold back an online safety cushion, then publishes an honest sellable quantity using reserved and safety stock states. Rules set a percentage or fixed reserve by product, tag, or collection, and one hold protects a single product without affecting every location.

Key points
  • Reserve retail stock so products show sold out before inventory reaches zero
  • Set thresholds store-wide or for specific store, products, collections, and tags
  • Set rule priorities so that your preferred threshold wins when rules overlap
  • Reserve stock for wholesale accounts so it stays available for B2B orders
  • Hold back a safety cushion so the online store does not oversell
  • Set percentage or fixed reserves by product, tag, or collection
  • Protect a single product with a wholesale hold without affecting every location
