# Availability and count info in products

There are three ways of showing the product availability:

* In stock
* Available for order
* Not available

## Availability

### In stock

If a product has `count` greater than 0, it means it can be ordered directly.

### Available for order

If a product does not have `count` but has `is_available_for_order` parameter set to `true`, you can show availability info in `order_availability` (plain text). This product will always be added to the shopping cart, also if `count === 0`.

### Not available

If a product does not have `count` and also is `is_available_for_order` set to `false`, it means that this product is not available to order.

## Showing sold out products

By default, API does not return sold out products. If you want to have these products shown in the listing, add `showSoldOut=true` parameter to the request.
