What is a waitlist

On any of your checkout links for any of your products (whops), you can choose to add customers to a waitlist rather than grant immediate access to your offer.

With a waitlist, customers fully add their payment details and complete the checkout process, but their card is not charged until you admit them off of the waitlist. Once admitted, their card is charged automatically and they are immediately granted access to your whop.

You as the creator are able to manage, review, admit, or deny waitlist entries on the Waitlists tab of your creator dashboard.


How to create a waitlist checkout option

  1. Head to your dashboard.

  2. Click on the Checkout links tab on the lefthand side bar

  3. Click the + Create checkout link button

  4. Customize your pricing link and check the box to Add a waitlist

  5. Click Create

How to approve/deny waitlist entries

Once you have created your waitlist, you will be able to see all waitlist entires on the Waitlists tab under the Marketing section of your dashboard. Within the waitlist page, you can do the following:

  • Approve (admit) or deny users from your waitlist

    • You an admit all entries at once by hitting the + Admit all entries button

  • Export entries of members on your waitlist
