Plugins
Preorder, Stock & Price Notifier
Offer preorders and let customers subscribe to back-in-stock and price-drop notifications in Shopware 6.
Preorder, Stock & Price Notifier
Preorder, Stock & Price Notifier helps keep demand from being lost when a product is not ready to ship or its current price is not right for a customer. It provides three product-led storefront flows: preorders, back-in-stock subscriptions, and price-drop subscriptions.
The plugin also records each request in Shopware Administration and sends notifications through the Shopware message queue.
What the plugin includes
- Preorders with a fixed preorder quantity, availability dates, a preorder price, and full or partial payment.
- Back-in-stock notifications for products whose available stock is zero.
- Price-drop notifications with an optional customer target price.
- Administration lists for preorder, stock-notify, and price-drop requests.
- Customer account area for checking, paying the remaining balance of, or cancelling a preorder.
- Mail templates and queue handlers for automatic customer notifications.
