Test your preorder offer
Testing a preorder offer on your Shopify store ensures everything works smoothly before making it available to your customers. Follow these steps to identify the product, set up the preorder offer, complete a checkout, and verify the order in Stoq’s reports.
Visit Your Storefront: Open your store’s website as a customer would.
Find the Preorder Product: Navigate to the product page you set up for preorder
Add to Cart and Checkout: Add the product to your cart and proceed to checkout. Complete the purchase as a customer, using test payment details if your store is in test mode.
Review Order Confirmation: Ensure you receive an order confirmation email indicating the product was preordered.
Log in to Stoq: Access your Stoq account and navigate to the reports section.
Find the Preorders Report: Head to Reports > Preorders to see your preorders list
Verify Order: Confirm that the test order you placed appears in the report. Check the details to ensure everything is recorded correctly, including the product, customer information, and preorder status.
Important Note - If Shopify discounts not working on pre-order products, then this because of option in the discount section. The option is called 'Purchase Type', which includes three options - 'One-time,' 'Subscription,' or 'Both.' This option is often set it to "one-time" by default.
To ensure the discount code works for pre-order products, you would need to select 'Both' under the 'Purchase Type' option.
