See every featureLow Stock Alerts & Notify Me watches every product in your store and emails you the moment stock drops to your threshold — one alert per dip, no repeats, re-armed when you restock. Set one store-wide threshold, or a different one for any product or variant. Shoppers who land on a sold-out page can leave their email, and the app lets them know the moment the item is back, bringing the sale home.
Know before you sell out. Set one threshold for the store and override it per variant, with no tagging. When stock drops to the threshold or hits zero, StockPing sends one message covering everything that changed, not one per variant, and a variant hovering at the line alerts once a day. Daily or weekly, get a digest of what is low or out, grouped by vendor, as a reorder list.
