By default, your checkout allows unlimited purchases unless you set a stock level. When stock is tracked, it decreases with each purchase or by the quantity field if enabled, and displays “Sold out” when it hits zero, preventing further sales. You can restock anytime by updating the Inventory settings.
In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of setting up and managing your inventory and stock levels within your checkouts.
Inventory settings - Set a stock level
- Open the edit view of your page in question from Pages
- Select Inventory from the left-side menu
- Disable the Unlimited stock toggle
- Enter your stock level in the field that appears
- Click save
Unlimited stock
By default, your checkouts are set to Unlimited stock.
This means that if you do not input a stock level, there’s no limit to the number of items that can be purchased.
Stock countdown
Every time a customer makes a purchase, the stock level will automatically decrease by 1.
If your one page checkout has a quantity field enabled, the stock will decrease by the number of items specified in the quantity field.
“Sold out” status
Once the stock reaches 0, the checkout will display a “Sold out” label, and customers will no longer be able to make a purchase.
To restock your inventory, simply update the stock level in the Inventory settings.
