Restock & Price Alert Demand Capture for WooCommerce helps store owners capture lost demand from out-of-stock products and price-sensitive customers.

Instead of simply showing “Out of stock”, this plugin lets customers register for restock notifications, subscribe to price-drop alerts, and gives the store owner a clear demand dashboard inside WooCommerce.

It is built for practical WooCommerce stores that want to understand which products and variations customers are waiting for, without adding complex external services or heavy integrations.

What this plugin does:

- Adds restock alert forms to out-of-stock WooCommerce products
- Supports simple products and variation-specific alerts
- Lets customers request a notification when a product price drops below their target price
- Shows product-level and variation-level demand inside the admin dashboard
- Sends restock and price-drop emails using safe batch processing
- Includes unsubscribe links in customer emails
- Provides admin alert lists, email logs, settings, and CSV demand export

The plugin is intentionally lightweight. It does not depend on external SaaS platforms, tracking scripts, remote APIs, or third-party email marketing services.

Key use cases:

- Recover demand from out-of-stock products
- See which product variations customers want most
- Capture price-sensitive buyers before they leave
- Export demand data for inventory planning
- Notify customers when products are back in stock
- Notify customers when a product reaches their target price

Built for stability:

- Uses WooCommerce product APIs
- Uses Action Scheduler when available for safer batch email processing
- Includes a WP-Cron fallback queue
- Avoids sending large email batches in one request
- Includes nonce checks, capability checks, sanitized inputs, and escaped outputs
- Includes Plugin Check remediation with 0 errors / 0 warnings in the final tested build
- Includes English documentation and a test report
