Fund Production & Test Demand: The Whizzly Pre-Order & Inventory Deposit System

For boutique fashion labels, handmade craft artisans, cosmetics creators, and importers, launching a new collection or seasonal product line requires upfront cash flow. Manufacturing minimums, fabric orders, and shipping fees must be paid long before items reach customers.

Today, we are thrilled to introduce the Whizzly Pre-Order & Inventory Deposit System, built directly into Whizzly (available as a £3.99/mo Starter add-on or included free in Pro)!

How the Pre-Order System Works

1. Pre-Order Mode & Estimated Shipping Dates: Toggle Pre-Order Mode on any product form and input your target estimated dispatch date (e.g. "Pre-Order Now — Ships Aug 25").
2. 50% Upfront Inventory Deposit: Option to accept full payment or a 50% Pre-Order Deposit to fund manufacturing upfront.
3. Automated WhatsApp Remaining Balance Dispatches: When inventory arrives and you update stock counts in your Whizzly dashboard, Whizzly automatically dispatches a WhatsApp payment link to customers for the remaining balance!

Available on Starter & Pro

The Pre-Order & Inventory Deposit System is available as a £3.99/mo add-on on Whizzly Starter, or included completely free on Whizzly Pro (£24.99/mo). Activate it from your Powerups Dashboard to start funding production upfront!
