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.
