Restock alerts overview
What are restock alerts and what does the functionality do? Here is a brief overview.
The restock alert functionality allows you to display a 'notify me' button on any of your products when they are out of stock. This allows you to capture demand for products that are currently out of stock. The customer will enter their email to be alerted when the product is back in stock. Once the product is restocked (inventory is above 0 in shopify), the app will automatically send out the alert emails to everyone that signed up.
Restock alerts work at the variant level. Meaning if one variant is out of stock, and another variant is in stock, the notify me button will only display on the out of stock variant. Customers will also only be alerted when the specific variant they signed up for is back in stock. So all functionality works at the product variant level.
