Waitlist Flow Wizard – Automate recovery of sales from cancellations

Summary: Waitlist Flow Wizard automatically notifies customers on waitlists when product spots open due to cancellations, enabling instant sales recovery without manual emails. It detects order cancellations or refunds and emails the next waitlist customer a secure checkout link with a 15-minute claim window, streamlining inventory turnover and reducing lost revenue.

What it does

The app adds a "Join Waitlist" button to product pages and monitors cancellations or refunds. When a spot frees up, it emails the next waitlist customer a one-click checkout link that expires after 15 minutes, then moves to the next if unclaimed.

Who it's for

Shopify merchants managing sold-out products, pre-orders, limited events, or services who want to automate follow-ups and recover sales from cancellations.

Why it matters

It eliminates manual follow-ups and prevents lost revenue by instantly filling spots freed by cancellations with pre-qualified customers.
