Show preorder offer information at every step of purchase flow and admin page

Merchants can now show preorder offer information using STOQ in cart, checkout, thank you and admin pages. This information is shown using Line item properties that are attached to the product when added to cart.


The same properties when enabled, can also be picked up by other apps to show additional information such as sending information on preorder confirmation emails, printing the order and offer details on a packing slip.

Currently, the following properties can be shown for all offers:


  1. Offer Name
  2. Offer Description (Disclaimer)
  3. Offer Fulfillment
  4. Offer Payment
  5. Offer Discount


How to show preorder offer information at every step of purchase flow


  1. Go to "STOQ > Preorders" and click on "Edit" for the offer that you'd like to show the preorder offer information.


  1. To display payment and discount savings info for the user, scroll down to "Payment" section; enable the checkbox for "Show payment & discount savings" and click save.
  2. To display fulfillment info for the user, enable the checkbox for "Show fulfillment timeline" and click save.
