Pre-order for WooCommerce

Pre-order for WooCommerce is easy to set up and manage with the WooLentor plugin. Pre-orders give you a good idea of what to expect and predict the demand for certain products, even for items that have yet to be offered. You can see how interested people are in certain items before they’re available. If you’ve ever wanted to offer products in your store that aren’t in stock yet, offering a pre-order option to your customers is a good way to achieve it. Your clients will then be able to purchase those items which will be shipped when they become available.
