What it does
Launching a new product usually means waiting until stock arrives before you can take orders. This plugin lets shoppers reserve items ahead of time, so you can see demand early and plan inventory around confirmed orders. It suits new gadgets, limited edition items and seasonal products, and it works inside your existing WooCommerce store without changing your current setup.
You turn pre-orders on or off for each product individually, then choose whether customers pay part of the cost or the full amount when they order. Start and end dates define the pre-order window. Product pages show a clear pre-order status label, automatic emails update customers from placement through to availability, and you can track every pre-order from the WooCommerce dashboard. Developers can adjust behavior using hooks and filters.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores launching new or upcoming products
- Shops selling limited edition or seasonal items
- Developers building custom pre-order flows for clients
Features
Partial or full payments
Let customers pay a portion upfront or settle the whole amount when they place a pre-order, depending on how your business prefers to handle pre-sales.
Set pre-order periods

Automatic email notifications
Customers receive emails at each stage, from a successful pre-order to the moment the product becomes available, without you sending them by hand.
Per-product control
Enable or disable pre-orders on individual products, so you decide exactly which items in your catalog can be reserved ahead of launch.
Pre-order status labels
Clear messages on product pages tell shoppers that an item is available for pre-order, so they know what they are buying before checkout.

Monitor and manage all pre-orders from your WooCommerce dashboard, which keeps fulfillment and reporting in the place you already work.

Pre-order transactions run through popular payment gateways, so you can keep using the payment processors your store already relies on.
