Keep sold-out variants selling and ship the backup you approved, instead of losing the order.

When a variant sells out, Shopify stops the sale. Substitutions keeps it buyable and ships a backup you approved, so the order goes out instead of being lost. The app scans your catalog and uses AI-assisted matching to suggest a backup for each sold-out variant: the same item from a new production run, in another pack, or as smaller sizes that add up. Turn one on in a click. Customers pay their original price, every swapped order is tagged, and selling stops when the backup runs low.

Thank you, R.A.D team! Working through your production changeover with you was a pleasure, and the location-aware swaps we built together now make the app better for every store with more than one warehouse. We're always a message away.
