Shopify Pick: Why Is Appikon Back in Stock the Best App for Restock Alerts on Shopify?

The eCommerce retailers are losing $1 trillion every year due to product stockout. This makes it pretty clear that you must have a strategy to bring back the lost sales. And going forward, Appikon Restock Alerts must be in the scheme of things for that strategy.

This Shopify Pick app provides you with features that make you forget about its existence. The only time you'll notice Appikon Back in Stock Alerts app is when you see customers subscribing to the alert when a product goes out of stock. Here's what you get.

Smart Automation

Let's say you have only ten products in your Shopify eCommerce store. In this case, if a couple of your products go out of stock, you can afford to manually replace the "Add to Cart" with the "Notify Me" button.

But is it still possible to do this when you have hundreds and thousands of products in your store? Not unless you're a work-bot.

The Appikon Restock Alerts become that work-bot for you. It automatically replaces the "Add to Cart" button as soon as the product goes out of stock. Moreover, you don't have to spend any extra time selecting customers from the subscription list and sending them the notification.

Once the product is restocked, the customers who have subscribed for the alert receive the alerts automatically.

Automated Multichannel Alerts

Here's the truth about back in stock alerts — you can't expect all the restock alert subscribers to return for buying the product if email is all you're using to send the alerts.

On average, a customer receives almost 100 emails every day. This means there are high chances of your alert getting lost in the inbox. But when you have multichannel alerts, the customer prefers where they want to receive the notification.

In an ideal condition, customers pick the channels where they are most active. Hence, all of your alerts will reach your customers and bring them back to your store.

With Appikon Back in Stock Alerts, you can give your customers an option to pick from multiple channels — Emails, SMS, Web Push, or Facebook Messenger.

Segmented Restock Alerts

Imagine you are running a clothing eCommerce store, and a product goes out of stock for all sizes (XXS to XXL). Now, you want to restock the product for L to XXL sizes.

Would you be sending them back in stock alerts to the customers who subscribed to receive it for sizes below L? It would be misleading, and customers will probably never trust your alerts again.

But with Appikon Restock Alerts, you can send variant-specific alerts to your customers. This means that if a customer has subscribed for a "Black Color Medium-Sized Dress," they will only receive the alert when both the color and size conditions are met.

However, you can still alert those customers by saying that — The product you wanted is available in Red color. Segmented restock alerts help you improve customer experience by making the alerts more relevant.

Multiple Location Alert

This is another aspect of segmented alerts. When you have restocked the product, but it can only be shipped to certain cities, there's no point in sending alerts to those who can't order the product.

Using the location filter on Appikon Back in Stock, you can only ensure that your back in stock alert reaches only those customers who have subscribed for the alert from an eligible location.

Compatible With Every Theme

Moving on, you don't want to install a Shopify app that makes the design of your store messy. The elements of the app should be customizable so that it aligns well with your brand colors and design.

And the Appikon's app doesn't disappoint in this department either, as the look and feel of each element are totally customizable.

Supports All Languages

Now, let's your store is made to cater to customers in France. It is obvious that you're going to use French as the default language to appeal to the local customers.

What if the app you install doesn't support French? In that case, you'll have to use some other local language or a global language for the elements of the app.

And by doing so, you'll be ruining the shopping experience of the customers. Fortunately, Appikon Back in Stock app supports almost every popular language to ensure that the purpose of back in stock alerts is served effectively.

Easy and Quick Installation

When you run an eCommerce business, your primary work is to manage the production, orders, strategies, etc. You can't just be sitting on your desktop figuring out the ways to install an app on your Shopify store and then putting hours into making it work.

You want an app that is easy and quick to install. And that's exactly what Appikon Restock alert is. You just have to click the "Add App" button, and then the out of stock pop-up will be live on your product pages at the variant level.

Captures Customer Email

The back in stock form is one of the most effective ways to capture the emails and other contact details of interested customers. When they click on the "Notify Me" button and opt-in to receive the alert from you, you get the address to reach them.

And not just any address, the address of the channel where they are most active. The customer data that you collect with Appikon, you can use to retarget the customers later.

And because these customers were once interested in your product, they are very likely to convert.
