The pre-order infrastructure and features your team has been waiting for

  • Payment Flexibility

    Offer pay on ship, deposit plus balance, or full payment upfront. Match the payment structure to product lead time and customer expectations while supporting FTC compliance.

  • Cancellation control

    Set cancellation windows that close automatically at the point your business commits to production. Full-payment and deposit options can strengthen commitment without removing customer choice too early.

  • Order splitting

    Sell in-stock and pre-order items in one checkout. Keep pre-order items outside the warehouse flow and charge shipping based on each fulfillment.

  • Automated communications

    Automate updates from confirmation through shipping and give customers a self-service portal for status, address changes, and eligible order amendments. Purple Dot customers report a 9/10 customer satisfaction score

  • TBD shipping and pricing

    If production costs, freight, or final specifications change, Purple Dot can support additional charges, partial refunds, or price adjustments with customer notification and consent.

  • Migration support

    Move from a manual process or another tool with support for migrating existing pre-orders, including payment continuity where supported, without asking customers to re-enter card details.

JAXXON

"The transition to Purple Dot proved seamless, delivering performance outcomes that far exceeded our initial projections. Pre-order execution has now evolved into a fundamental pillar of our brand strategy."

02

Limited Run Games

"With Purple Dot, we can partially ship pre-orders when individual items are ready to go. In the checkout, customers can choose whether to ship pre-order items together or have us send each item separately, putting them in control of when ready items ship."

03

Timex

"Pre-orders build buzz around big moments. Particularly for notable collaborations, it gets new people to our site who may not have heard of Timex before, but who may now buy another Timex product."
