Limited availability labels

Let customers know when an item is low in stock.

Last updated January 17, 2025

Enable limited availability labels to display product availability and flag items that are low in stock. This is a great option for merchandising products if you sell one-of-a-kind or limited-edition items. Limited availability label settings apply to all physical and service products in your store, and display on store pages and product details pages.
