How it works
Pick a product
Turn on pre-order for a whole product or only the variants that are coming later.
Set the terms
Choose the deposit, when the balance is due, and the expected ship date.
Shopify's checkout does the rest
Customers see what's due today and what's due later.
Everything a pre-order campaign needs
Real deposits
Charge a percentage today and the balance later, or the full price up front.
Both buy buttons covered
Add to cart and Buy it now both carry the pre-order terms.
Quantity limits
Cap how many units can be pre-ordered; Shopify stops selling at zero.
Auto mode
Pre-order switches on when a product sells out and off when stock is back.
End dates
Campaigns close on the date you set, and the product returns to normal.
Variant-level
Run a pre-order on one size or colour while the rest sell as usual.
Ship date on the page
Show the expected ship date and your note right on the product page.
Pre-order badges
Mark pre-order products on product cards in collections, search and the home page.
Inventory that stays under control
Pre-orders need overselling switched on. Left on after a campaign, a product sells without limits. Dropsoon makes sure that never happens.
Settings put back
Overselling is switched on only while a campaign runs, and each variant's previous setting is restored when the campaign ends or you turn it off. Turn campaigns off before you uninstall the app.
Multi-location aware
Stock is saved and restored per location, so turning off a limit never inflates inventory.
No customer data stored
Dropsoon keeps order numbers and quantities only: no names, emails, addresses or payment details.
Native, not a workaround
Deposits and balances are Shopify's own pre-order checkout, not a script that relabels the button.
Simple, flat pricing
Every feature on every plan. You only choose how many products run pre-orders.

Questions
How does pricing work?
Plans are billed by Shopify on your regular Shopify invoice, with no per-order fees and no share of your sales. Free covers 3 pre-order products. Starter, Growth and Pro cover 15, 50 and unlimited products, each with a 14-day free trial. You can switch or cancel from the app at any time.
How is this different from other pre-order apps?
Dropsoon uses Shopify's native pre-order purchase options, so checkout itself shows and collects the deposit and schedules the balance. Your inventory settings are switched on only while a campaign runs and restored when it ends or you turn it off. Turn your campaigns off before uninstalling the app.
How is the balance collected?
At checkout the customer pays the deposit and Shopify stores their payment method. When the balance falls due on the schedule you set for the campaign, Dropsoon charges it to that saved payment method automatically and retries a declined payment after 1, 3 and 7 days. Every balance and its status is listed in the app.
Do I need to touch code?
No. Enable pre-order on a product in the app, then add the Pre-order block to your product page once in the theme editor.
What happens if I uninstall Dropsoon?
Turn your pre-orders off in the app first: that restores each product's inventory settings. Uninstalling alone doesn't, so overselling would stay on. Balances that haven't been charged yet aren't collected after you uninstall; you'd collect them in Shopify. If you've already uninstalled, reinstall Dropsoon and turn the campaign off within 48 hours of uninstalling to get the original settings back.
Which payment providers work?
Shopify's deferred purchase options work with Shopify Payments and PayPal Express, and also with Adyen on Shopify and, for some merchants, Stripe. They aren't available on Shopify POS, draft orders or B2B.
