Sale Alerts
Waiting for a plugin to go on sale? Put it on your wishlist and turn on a sale alert. Sale alerts aren't sending emails yet. Your alert stays on and starts working when they do.
Plugin makers run sales all the time, and most of us wait for one before buying. Once sale alerts are sending, an alert watches the price of one plugin on its maker's own store page and sends you one email when it drops well below its normal price.

What the panel tells you
Once an alert is on, the line under the button says where it stands:
- Watching — we haven't checked its price yet. The alert is set; its first price check is still to come.
- Watching — last checked and a date. We read its price on that day.
- We can't read this plugin's price, so we can't alert you yet. Its store page doesn't show a price we can read reliably. The alert stays on, so it starts working if that changes.

Which plugins can have an alert
Any plugin on your wishlist that is sold on its own and has a store page we know about. Devices that come built into a DAW are never sold separately, so they never go on sale and can't have an alert. If we can't offer one, the panel tells you why.
The email
Once sale alerts are sending, you get one email per sale: the sale price, the normal price, the store where we saw it and when, and a link to that store page. Just before sending, we check the page again, and if the sale has already ended we send nothing. You won't hear about the same sale twice. When that sale ends and a new one starts, you'll get a new email.
Stop an alert
Click the button in the plugin's Your Library panel again, or use the Stop alerts link in any alert email — it works without signing in. The unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails stops every alert at once.
