Back in Stock Email — Free Restock Notification Email Template

Back in Stock Email is a free, responsive HTML template for telling waitlist shoppers that a sold-out product is available again. Back-in-stock alerts go to people who have already said they want the item, which is why they convert so well: the shopper only needs to click and buy.
What's in the email
A "You asked, it's back" label and a personal headline, a short intro, then a product card with a "Back in stock" badge, a large product photo, the product name, variant and price, and an optional low-stock line such as "only a few left in this color". A big "Shop now" button links straight to the product page, and a closing note explains that stock goes to whoever checks out first.
Honest urgency that works
Restocked items often sell out again quickly, so a truthful low-stock line gives shoppers a real reason to act now. Keep it accurate: if stock isn't limited, leave the line empty and it disappears. The product photo links to the product page too, so every part of the card is clickable.
Works with your store
Copy the HTML into Klaviyo, Shopify Email, Omnisend, Mailchimp or a back-in-stock app such as Back in Stock or Notify Me, and replace the sample product with your platform's product variables. It's built with tables and inline styles, with an Outlook-safe button, a dark palette and a plain-text version. Because it's a promotional email, the footer includes an unsubscribe link and postal address. For carts left behind, use the Abandoned Cart template.

Use Klaviyo's back-in-stock flow or a Shopify app that collects waitlist sign-ups. Copy this template's HTML into the flow's custom HTML email and replace the product name, image, price and link with the platform's variables.
