About Back In Stock: Customer Alerts

Stop losing sales when inventory runs out.

Featured on a blog? Cracked that AdWords campaign? Your store can see a surge of visitors in moments. Awesome! But what if your inventory sells out?

Don’t lose sales when your inventory runs out. Back in Stock makes it easy for customers to sign up for a Back in Stock alert (Email or SMS Text Message). When you restock products, waiting customers are then alerted instantly to bring them back to your store and complete the purchase.

Back in Stock is simple to setup and runs automatically.

Email messages that convert

Back in Stock works on the product variant level: customers are notified when the specific size or color they want is restocked. This gives you impressive rates of engagement and conversion.

Back in Stock brings customers back to your store and helps you convert those sales you otherwise miss with in stock notifications.

Simple setup. Powerful customization.

Installation is simple and takes less than 30 seconds. Simply hit Get App and a button saying ‘email me when available’ will immediately appear on all relevant product pages. We support a wide variety of themes out of the box. Optionally add SMS Text Message capability to your store and your customers can choose to be notified via email or SMS, which ever they prefer.

This button automatically connects to a Back in Stock pop-up form that has a field for email address and a drop-down menu for product variants.

Want to to build something custom?

  • Create custom experiences with your own button or use our flexible JavaScript API.
  • Edit the email template with Liquid - just like Shopify.

Works very well, fast customer support, BUT it doesn't support a multi-lingual site (if all languages are under one domain). Unfortunately....

It works very well for us. We often sell out quickly and then we get some back in return. Our customers can easily sign up on their sold out size to get notified if it will come back in stock. The app is easy to personalize and support is very good. We have used it for almost a year.

This app works fine but is priced wrong. It should be priced by number of emails vs a monthly limit. The way most stores will use it will hit the limit every month making the lowest plan worthless. When a product goes out of stock for us, it is out of stock for a month or two. We may not send an email for many months because a shipment hasn't arrived. However, once a container arrives a ton of products get back in stock, there are 500 people waiting and we always hit the email limit. So we can go 4 months paying $20 for no emails and then when we really need this app, it throttles us down and we can only send out 100 emails and need to pay more? It would be nice if we could just roll over our unused emails each month. We switched to a free back in stock app that is just as good and has no limits.
