Coming Soon

Put a product live before it's for sale.

Coming Soon replaces the Add-to-Cart button with a non-clickable “Coming Soon” state, so a product can sit on your storefront and build anticipation before launch day.

Coming Soon button (non-clickable)

It replaces Add-to-Cart — nothing to click, nothing to buy yet. Want to capture interest? Pair it with Notify Me.

Coming Soon is a visual state — it doesn't sell or collect emails on its own.

What you can do

Coming Soon, in detail.

A real “Coming Soon” button

The primary element — it replaces the sold-out / Add-to-Cart button so the product clearly isn't purchasable yet.

Badge & message to match

Add an optional badge and a short message to explain what's coming and when.

Shows when it's out of stock

Coming Soon appears while the variant has no inventory, and steps aside the moment you add stock.

Pair with Notify Me to capture interest

Coming Soon builds anticipation; add Notify Me alongside it to collect emails for launch day.

No code, native to your theme

The button and message match your theme automatically and clean up if you ever uninstall.

Questions

Coming Soon, answered.

Does Coming Soon collect emails?
No — Coming Soon is a visual state that replaces the buy button. To capture interest for launch day, add Notify Me alongside it; the two work together.
When does the Coming Soon button show?
While the variant is out of stock. As soon as you add inventory, the product returns to its normal buyable state.
Can I change the button text and add a message?
Yes. The button label, an optional badge, and a short message are all yours to edit so they fit your launch.
Do I need to touch my theme?
No. Timesact is no-code — it places the Coming Soon button in your theme for you and cleans up fully if you uninstall.
