Smart Stock Alerts Install on BigCommerce

What is your empty shelf worth?

Put your own numbers in. The calculator shows how many shoppers would join a waiting list each month, how many restock emails would go out, and what those emails would bring back, against the price of the plan.

Your store

Two numbers you know, or can read in your BigCommerce analytics.

Sessions that land on a product page where the product, or the selected variant, is out of stock. If you do not track it, take 5 to 15% of your product-page traffic.

The restock email is one they asked for, which is why this rate is far above ordinary marketing email.
Standard checks stock every 6 hours and sends up to 1,000 emails a month. Premium checks every hour with no limit.

How the numbers are worked out

Shoppers joining a list = visits to sold-out pages × the share who leave an email. Restock emails = those shoppers × the share of products that come back within the month. Orders = restock emails × the share who buy. Revenue = orders × your average order value. Nothing else is added: no lift on other products, no repeat purchases, no phone or SMS.

The defaults are deliberately plain. If your store sells limited runs or seasonal products, sign-up rates are usually higher and restock rates lower. Change both and see what moves.

On the Standard plan, emails above 1,000 a month wait for the next month; the calculator flags it when your numbers cross that line.
