StoreArmory Waitlist for WooCommerce

Description

Every out-of-stock product page is a leak. A shopper who was ready to buy hits “out of stock”, leaves, and you have no way to bring them back.

StoreArmory Waitlist plugs that leak. It adds a clean “Email me when it’s back in stock” form to every out-of-stock WooCommerce product. When you restock, every waiting shopper gets an automatic email so they can come back and buy — often your highest-converting email of the month.

It is lightweight, privacy-first, and works out of the box with your existing WooCommerce store and theme. No account required for shoppers, no complicated setup for you.

Why choose StoreArmory Waitlist?

• Zero setup — activate it and the sign-up form appears automatically on every out-of-stock simple product.
• Recover real sales — turn dead “out of stock” traffic into a warm list that converts the day you restock.
• Privacy-first by design — double opt-in is on by default and full GDPR consent (text, IP and timestamp) is recorded for every sign-up.
• Restocks detected automatically — works whether you change stock by hand, by CSV import, or from an ERP/inventory sync.
• No lock-in — your data lives in your own database and every email has one-click unsubscribe.
