By Variant
Pre-release Announcements and Limited-time Sales by Variant
You can set up pre-release announcements and limited-time sales by individual variants, which wasn't possible with existing sales period apps. For example, if an apparel item has three color variations - black, white, and red, you can set up limited-time sales exclusively for the red variant.
Features
Pre-release Announcements
Set up pre-release announcements for your products. Before the release date, display the launch date/time while hiding the cart button. Once released, the cart button becomes visible.
Limited-time Sales
Implement limited-time sales with customizable start and end dates/times. Different messages can be displayed for each phase of the sale.
Message Design Customization
Set different designs for pre-sale, during sale, and post-sale periods.
Message Placement Options
Choose to display messages either above or below the cart button.
Preview Function
Check design changes in real-time with the preview feature.
Translation
All configurable messages within the app can be switched between various languages.
Customizing Alert Messages
When customers attempt to purchase products outside their sales period, orders can be blocked. You can customize the alert message displayed to customers when orders are blocked.
Blocking Orders Outside Sales Period
Even if products that are no longer available through limited-time sales remain in the cart, orders can be blocked at the checkout page.
Preventing Unintended Orders
Prevention of unintended orders, which was difficult with conventional apps, is now possible. This includes purchases using cart buttons generated by BuyButton, purchases through cart buttons generated by third-party apps such as favorites apps, and purchases from forcibly displayed cart buttons through coding. Various fraudulent and inappropriate purchases can be prevented.

User Testimonials
I implemented this for pre-release announcements of new products. Operation was simple and I could set it up immediately without looking at the manual. Since it can also handle limited-time sales, I'd like to try that feature next time.
Not only does it have many features, but they also responded immediately to inquiries during the Obon holiday period. When there was interference with other apps causing malfunction, they spent a whole day working on a solution. They really consider users' needs and are truly a trustworthy company. With overseas apps, it's often difficult to make contact when problems occur and response times can be poor, so in that sense, I highly recommend this app.
Support is quick and setup was very easy
