Description

WooCommerce Waitlist is a plugin that adds waiting lists to out-of-stock products in a WooCommerce store. Customers join a list from the product page, and when stock is updated they receive an email with a link to buy. Store managers can see who is waiting for which product and manage those lists from the admin.

Key Features

  • Back-in-stock email alerts – Shoppers who join a waitlist get an automatic email with a link to the product once it is available again.
  • Customer waitlist management – Customers can see and manage every waitlist they have joined from a tab on their account page.
  • Admin waitlist tab – Each product's edit screen has a tab where staff can add or remove waiting users, view archived lists and export a CSV.
  • Shortcode placement – The waitlist elements can be placed on any product anywhere on the site using a shortcode.
  • Product type support – Waitlists work with simple products, product variations and the children of grouped products.
  • Admin join notifications – The site administrator can be emailed whenever a customer joins a waitlist.
  • Minimum stock threshold – You can set a minimum stock level that must be reached before in-stock notifications go out.

Who Is It For

This plugin is for WooCommerce store owners and shop managers who sell products that go out of stock and want to capture demand instead of losing it. It suits stores that need to track which items customers are waiting for and notify them automatically when stock returns.
