Restock
Restock lets shoppers leave an email on out-of-stock WooCommerce products and get notified when the item is available again. Logged-in customers manage signups under My Account → Waitlists.
Why stores pick Restock
Section titled “Why stores pick Restock”Restock is built for the real storefront: reserved layout space, no jQuery on the form, WCAG-minded controls and documentation you can follow. The free edition is the full GPL product — not a trial with hidden limits.
Free edition highlights
Section titled “Free edition highlights”- Signup form on out-of-stock and backorder product pages (simple products).
- Variation-aware waitlists: after the shopper selects an unavailable variation, the form appears and stores that variation ID.
- Automatic email when WooCommerce restocks the product or variation.
- My Account → Waitlists tab with stock status and leave-waitlist action.
- Consent checkbox, reserved-space form, accessible AJAX submit (no jQuery for the form itself).
- Admin subscriber list with CSV export.
Product direction
Section titled “Product direction”Restock Pro (Freemius) ships demand analytics, double opt-in, scheduled sends and category segmentation — a WooCommerce dashboard with signup counts and CSV export, optional email confirmation, staggered notification batches, and include/exclude rules by product category. See Restock Pro.

Section titled “Polski overlap”Polski for WooCommerce can include a waitlist in Other storefront modules. Do not install Restock if that module is enabled. See Standalone storefront plugins in Polski.
