Compliance checklist
- Payment items priced — passingEvery payment question charges a real amount, so a submission always records a payment.
- Conditional logic resolves — passingEvery rule points at a question or page that exists in this template.
- Legal text not required — passingThis template collects neither health nor regulated financial information.
- Question labels unique — passingLogic and exports address questions by label, so duplicates are ambiguous.
What happens after submit: nothing is stored in this preview. On your own copy, every response triggers an instant email notification and lands in your response dashboard, ready to export or forward.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Variant” is Other variant, the form dynamically exposes “Other Variant Details”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Alert Delivery” is Email and text message, the form dynamically exposes “Mobile Number”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Shopping Location” is Store pickup, the form dynamically exposes “Preferred Store”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.
About this template
An unavailable product should not send shoppers into a dead end. This card gives them a quick way to request an alert for a particular item, variant, and shopping location. It collects an email address by default and offers an optional text message without turning a restock request into a general newsletter signup. Place the card beside the unavailable purchase button. Prefill the product name or code from that page, and replace the sample variant choices with the actual options for the item. Keep product identifiers consistent with your inventory system; a free-text product nickname is difficult to match when stock arrives. If you offer store pickup, customize the location prompt so shoppers can identify the branch they mean. Explain before submission that an alert does not reserve an item or guarantee availability. Do not ask for payment details, shipping addresses, or an account password. Those belong in a purchase flow, not an availability request. Route requests into a product-and-variant queue, then check sellable inventory before sending a notification. Include a direct product link and a way to stop future alerts. Deduplicate repeated requests for the same email, item, variant, and location. After sending an alert, mark that request as notified so the next inventory update does not trigger another unwanted message.

Set it up step by step
- 1
Tie the card to one product
Embed it on the unavailable product page and prefill Product Name or Code with a stable inventory identifier. Replace the sample variant menu before publishing.
- 2
Offer only channels you can deliver
Keep email as the baseline. Remove the text-message option, Mobile Number field, and related rule if your team has no SMS workflow.
- 3
Match the right inventory pool
Separate online requests from store-pickup requests. Confirm missing store or variant details before matching a request to available stock.
- 4
Close the loop after notification
Check that the item can actually be purchased, send its direct link, and record the notification date. Suppress duplicate requests and stop alerts when a shopper opts out.
Mistakes to avoid
- Leaving generic size choices on products that need color, model, or combined variant selections.
- Treating a stock alert signup as a preorder, stock reservation, or newsletter subscription.
- Sending alerts when inventory is received but still unavailable for purchase or pickup.
What it pairs with

Frequently asked questions
Does signing up reserve a product?
No. This card records interest and notification preferences only. Use the Product Pre-Order Card if you are accepting advance orders through a separate purchase process.
Should shoppers enter a product name themselves?
Prefer a prefilled product name and stable code from the product page. Keep manual entry for a standalone card, and review unmatched entries before adding them to an automated alert queue.
What happens if someone requests texts but leaves the number blank?
Send the alert by email only. The mobile field is optional, so your notification workflow should check that a usable number exists before attempting a text message.
Can this card send alerts automatically?
The card collects requests; automatic delivery needs a connected inventory and messaging workflow. Match product, variant, and location, verify sellable stock, and mark each request as notified after sending.
