Customer flow

Customer reserves interest from a preorder widget.

Merchant tracks offers, products, reservations, notification status, and follow-up readiness.

  • Offer pages for default and campaign-style preorder setup
  • Availability display for date, timeframe, or coming soon copy
  • Market, limit, delivery, discount, and inventory-reserve configuration surfaces
  • Product, collection, home, and cart widget customization areas
  • Confirmation and delayed-shipment notification templates

Setup steps

  1. Create or edit the default preorder offer.
  2. Select the products, collections, tags, or market rules the offer applies to.
  3. Set availability copy and reservation limits.
  4. Customize product, collection, home, and cart widgets.
  5. Place a test reservation and confirm admin tracking and customer confirmation.

Inside Shopify admin

Preorder has dedicated reports and configuration

The public website mirrors the actual admin architecture: merchants can see data, customize behavior, and test the feature from the right module.

Does this charge the customer at checkout?

Current public wording is intentionally reservation-focused. Paid preorder checkout should only be claimed after full Shopify order/payment behavior is implemented.

Can offers be customized?

Yes. NotifyStock has admin surfaces for offer rules, availability display, and customer-facing widget copy.
