Let Your Store Show How Busy It Is

Visitors trust what other shoppers do more than anything you write. The plugin records three kinds of activity on its own and shows them as small pop-ups, so a hesitant visitor sees that people are buying, adding to their carts and leaving reviews right now.

  • Product purchase: recorded when an order is placed, or only after a successful payment if you set Consider purchase as to Successful payment.
  • Add to cart: recorded the moment a product lands in a cart.
  • New product review: recorded for approved reviews, whichever form or plugin created them.
  • Each pop-up shows the product image, your message and how long ago it happened, and a click opens the product page.

Say It in Your Own Words

A pop-up only works when it sounds like your store. Each event type has its own Message template with a small editor, so you decide the wording, the tone and the language.

  • Variables: Customer name, Customer location, Product name, Product link and Product quantity, inserted with one click.
  • Product link turns the product name into a link inside the message.
  • Basic formatting such as bold and italic is available in the template editor.

Real Names When You Have Them, Safe Defaults When You Do Not

A first name and a city make a pop-up believable without exposing anyone. When they are unknown, the sentence still reads naturally.

  • Show real customer data when possible uses the customer’s first name and city from the order or the account.
  • Default instead of name and Default instead location fill the gaps, for example Somebody from your city.
  • Switch the real data off and every pop-up uses your defaults only.

Put the Spotlight on Any Product

A new arrival, a sale item or a product that sells well in your other channels can get its own event before the first order arrives on the site.

  • Create event manually with Type of Event, Customer name, Location, Product and Quantity.
  • Admin-made events look exactly like recorded ones.
  • Auto-renewal moves admin-made events back to the top of the list at the interval you choose, 12 hours by default.

Timing Visitors Will Not Mind

Social proof should feel like a glance at a busy shop, not a stream of alerts. Four settings define the rhythm, and a visitor can close a pop-up at any time.

  • Delay after page loads before the first pop-up, 10 seconds by default.
  • Pop-up display time and Delay between each pop-up, 15 and 20 seconds by default.
  • Max pop-ups per customer’s session caps how many a visitor sees, 5 by default.
  • Close pop-up button on every pop-up, with the option to stop showing pop-ups for the rest of the session once a visitor closes one.

Nothing Stale

A purchase from last night is still good news. A cart from last week is not. Each event type has its own limit, so the pop-ups stay credible.

  • Max age per type: 36 hours for purchases, 12 hours for carts and 168 hours for reviews by default.
  • Older events simply stop showing, without any action on your side.
  • Auto-delete removes events from the database after the lifetime you set, 30 days by default.

On the Pages That Sell, Off the Pages That Convert

Show pop-ups where they build confidence and keep them away from the moments that need full attention.

  • Display on pages: Home page, Product pages, Catalog/Category pages, Cart, Checkout page, Blog/Articles pages and Other pages, each with its own switch. Keep Cart and Checkout page off and nothing distracts a visitor who is about to order.
  • Hide on mobile keeps screens up to 720 px wide free of pop-ups.
  • Hide for user roles stops administrators, shop managers or any other role from seeing pop-ups while they work.
  • Excluded user roles and Excluded product categories keep staff orders and selected categories out of the recorded events.

Looks Like Part of Your Theme

Every visual setting lives in the WordPress Customizer, with a live preview of the pop-up on your own store.

  • Pop-up position in any corner, plus Pop-up width, Margins, Image width, Font size and Text alignment.
  • Text color, Background color, Pop-up shadow size and Shadow color, and Pop-up border radius.
  • Enable animations with a choice of Open pop-up animation and Close pop-up animation.
  • Pop-up preview type to preview each event type, and Additional CSS styles for anything else.

Every Event in One List

The Social Proof Events page under WooCommerce shows everything the plugin has recorded or you have created, so you always know what visitors may see.

  • Columns for Type, Made by, Customer name, Product, Quantity, Location and Date, with views for All, Admin made and User made events.
  • Renew brings an event back to the top, Delete removes it, singly or in bulk.
  • Debug mode logs what the pop-ups do in the browser console and the WooCommerce logs when you need to look under the hood.

Will it work with my setup?

The plugin reads orders, carts and reviews that WooCommerce already has and adds a small pop-up in the footer, so it fits into an existing store without changing products, checkout or themes.

  • Simple and variable products: a purchased variation is recorded with its own image.
  • Classic and block themes: the pop-up is added to the footer and styled independently of the theme.
  • High-Performance Order Storage compatibility declared.
  • Payment flows: count a purchase when the order is placed or only after a successful payment.
  • Review sources: the WooCommerce review form, Customer Reviews for WooCommerce, the REST API, imports and reviews approved after moderation.
  • Product context: pop-ups prefer products the visitor has recently viewed, bringing them back to items they were considering.
  • Product images: the pop-up uses the product image, or the WooCommerce placeholder when a product has none.
  • Light footprint: assets load only on the page types you enable, and each pop-up is one small request.

Perfect for: new stores that need their first signs of life, stores with steady sales that nobody sees, and any shop where visitors hesitate before the first order.
