More than "continue selling"

Shopify can sell a product below zero stock. PreorderFlow turns that into a preorder your buyers understand.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about setup, payments, plans, and data.

Does it work with my theme?

The app adds a theme app embed that you turn on in the theme editor. It is tested on Horizon and Dawn and needs no code changes.

Will it slow down my store?

No. The storefront script is about 3 KB and loads after the page. It only acts on product forms with a preorder.

How do buyers pay?

Buyers pay the full price at checkout, like for any other product. A preorder is a normal Shopify order, so every payment method you offer works.

What happens if I go over my plan?

Your offers keep selling. The app warns you at 80% of your allowance. After 7 days over it, you cannot start new offers until the next month or an upgrade.

Can buyers cancel a preorder?

Yes. Buyers choose "Cancel preorder" in their customer account until the order ships, and get a full refund.

What if my ship date changes?

Set the new date in the offer. When it is later, every buyer whose order has not shipped yet gets one email with the old date, the new date, and a way to cancel.

Which languages does it support?

The storefront texts, the emails, and the admin come in 21 languages. You can change every text that buyers see.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan includes 25 preorder orders a month and every feature. Paid plans start with a 14-day free trial.

What happens when I uninstall?

Orders you already took stay in Shopify as normal orders, and billing for a paid plan stops. 48 hours after you uninstall, Shopify asks the app to delete your shop's data, and the app deletes it.

How does PreorderFlow handle my buyers' data?

The app stores your shop settings and, for each preorder line, the order and its ship date. It stores no buyer names, email addresses, or customer IDs, and reads the email address from Shopify only to send a Ship Date Notice. Shopify's deletion requests run automatically. You are the controller for buyer data, and Eze Solutions UG (haftungsbeschränkt) processes it on your behalf under the data processing agreement (DPA) in the terms.

How do I get help?

Email support@preorderflow.com. The developer of PreorderFlow answers, in English or German.
