Bring interested shoppers back when stock returns

An unavailable product does not have to end the conversation. Back-In-Stock for FluentCart lets shoppers register their interest and gives your store a structured way to reconnect when inventory returns. Replace scattered restock enquiries with product-specific waitlists, controlled notifications, and reporting that helps you understand what happens after an alert.

Capture demand for the right product or variation

Let guests join a waitlist without creating an account, with optional signed confirmation for signup. Target individual products and variations so interest stays connected to the item a shopper actually wants. Include or exclude products and categories to decide where the experience appears.

Choose from five storefront templates to suit your store. Public, product, and request shortcodes give you additional placement options, while a logged-in request list helps returning customers manage their interest.

Match restock notifications to available inventory

Avoid treating every inventory update the same way. Minimum-stock thresholds help you decide when a restock is ready to announce, while configurable delays and batching give you control over notification timing and volume.

For limited restocks, first-in, first-out handling prioritizes earlier requests. Retry controls help you manage interrupted notification processing without turning every restock into a manual follow-up exercise. Together, these settings support a more deliberate approach to contacting customers when supply is constrained.

Offer alternatives without losing the original request

Sometimes a suitable alternative is available before the original product returns. Map up to three alternative products and send recommendations manually or automatically, giving interested shoppers another option while they wait.

Sending an alternative recommendation keeps the original request active. Customers can choose to retain their original alert or leave the list, so an alternative offer does not silently erase their interest in the product they first wanted.

See how customers respond to your alerts

Choose from three email layouts and review tracked opens, clicks, purchases, and revenue to understand the response to your notifications. CSV export makes waitlist data available for further analysis and operational reporting.

Back-In-Stock for FluentCart brings signup, notification controls, alternative recommendations, and measurement into one focused workflow. Give customers a clear next step when an item is unavailable, keep communication relevant to their request, and make each restock easier to manage.
