Waitlist Wizard — Back-in-Stock Alerts & Preorders
Capture demand and never lose a sale: email/SMS back-in-stock alerts and clean preorder flows for WooCommerce.
Waitlist Wizard turns “out of stock” into a growth lever. Collect emails or phone numbers per product or variation, auto-notify the moment inventory returns, or switch to preorder mode with release dates and limits. Insights show which items to restock first.
