Pre-Orders
Sell early with full payment, a percentage deposit or a fixed deposit.
For store owners
When a new product or restock is on the way, shoppers who want it now have nowhere to commit.
Taking orders early, with a deposit or full payment, lets you lock in that demand before the stock lands.
For marketplace founders
On a marketplace, one cart can hold pre-order items and in-stock items from several vendors.
Each needs its own payment and shipping path, or vendors end up holding orders they cannot ship yet.
How it works
Sell a product before it is available with full payment, a percentage deposit, or a fixed deposit.
If the cart also holds regular products, FlyCommerce separates them into the right orders per vendor.
Payment and fulfillment for pre-order items stay apart from items that can ship now.
Customers who paid a deposit settle the balance with any available payment method, through the gateway they choose.
