The message "please stay on this page until we can bring you in for pre-order" is commonly shown during a pre-order process to prevent customers from navigating away while their place in the queue or session for pre-ordering is being managed. This is typically used to manage traffic spikes and ensure fair access to the pre-order system. In a pre-order system:
- Users are asked to stay on the page to hold their spot.
- The system is preparing to bring them into the live pre-order where they can place their order.
- This helps avoid server overload and ensures the process is smooth for everyone.
This approach is part of the "during the pre-order" phase where the site manages customer traffic flow and provides communication about the wait time or readiness to proceed with the order.
If the message is shown indefinitely or there is an infinite loading, it may indicate a technical issue or a slow response from the system, even though the order might be registered on the backend already.
In summary, the message is a queue or waiting page instruction, requesting customers to remain on the page until the pre-order phase begins actively and they are allowed to finalize their order.
