Restock Alert: Back-in-Stock and Price-Drop Alerts That Send Themselves

One Shopify widget captures restock subscribers and price-drop watchers. Both alert types fire automatically, recovering revenue you would otherwise lose. Free up to 50 combined alerts, no credit card needed.

How It Works

A clean workflow from sold-out interest to recovered sale.

1

Add the Widget Block

Open Shopify Admin, customize your theme, and place the Restock Alert block on the product page. One block handles both modes, no extra setup.

2

Capture Subscribers and Watchers

When a variant is out of stock, shoppers join the restock waitlist. While it's in stock, they can watch for a price drop. The widget switches modes automatically.

3

Alerts Send Automatically

When inventory returns, restock emails fire instantly. When you lower a price, price-drop emails send the moment Shopify fires the update.

Features

Automated restock capture, alert delivery, and merchant-side visibility, all managed through Shopify.

Back-in-Stock Alerts

Capture demand on sold-out variants and send branded email alerts the moment inventory returns, triggered by Shopify inventory webhooks, no polling.

Price-Drop Alerts

Let shoppers watch a product for a price cut. When you lower the price, they get a branded email showing the strikethrough original price and the new lower price.

Dual-Mode Storefront Widget

One theme app block handles both alert types. It shows the restock form for out-of-stock variants and the price-drop form for in-stock ones, switching automatically.

Fast, Branded Email Delivery

Restock and price-drop emails send immediately when customers are most likely to convert. Per-type message customization keeps each alert on-brand.

Demand Analytics Dashboard

Four stat cards track restock pending, price-drop watching, restock sent, and price-drop sent. See your top waitlisted and most-watched products at a glance.

Consent-Aware, Product-Page Only

A mandatory consent checkbox keeps your signup flow compliance-ready. The widget appears only on product pages, never cluttering collection or home pages.

Pricing

A free entry point and a flat monthly upgrade once your store starts generating meaningful alert volume.
