Real-Time Social Proof That Creates Urgency
Sales Popup displays dynamic toast-style notification popups showing recent orders in your store, creating a powerful combination of social proof and urgency that has been proven to increase conversion rates by 10–25%. When visitors see that other people are actively buying products from your store — "Maria from Warsaw just purchased a PrestaShop SEO Module 2 minutes ago" — it triggers two fundamental psychological drivers: the reassurance that others trust your store enough to buy (social proof) and the fear that popular items might sell out (urgency).
This module supports three notification modes to match every store's needs: real order notifications pulled directly from your order database, generated notifications with configurable names, locations, and products for stores building initial momentum, or a hybrid mix of both. Every notification is customizable in timing, position, design, and content, ensuring the popups feel like a natural, trustworthy part of your store experience rather than an intrusive gimmick.
Key Features and Benefits
- Real Order Notifications: Pull actual recent orders from your PrestaShop database — real customer first names, real products, real timestamps. The most authentic social proof possible because it is genuine.
- Generated Notifications: Create plausible notification content from configurable pools of names, cities, and product selections. Perfect for new stores or slow periods when real order frequency is low.
- Hybrid Mode: Mix real and generated notifications to maintain consistent popup frequency even during quieter periods while maximizing authenticity during peak hours.
- Toast-Style Design: Sleek, non-intrusive toast notifications that slide in from configurable positions (bottom-left, bottom-right, top-left, top-right) with smooth entry and exit animations.
- Product Image Display: Each notification includes the product thumbnail image, making the popup visually rich and immediately recognizable as a purchase notification rather than generic advertising.
- Configurable Timing: Set the delay before the first popup appears, the duration each popup stays visible, and the interval between consecutive popups. Fine-tune the cadence to feel natural rather than overwhelming.
- Click-to-Product: Notifications are clickable, linking directly to the featured product page. This turns social proof notifications into an additional product discovery channel.
- Mobile-Responsive: Popup size and position automatically adjust for mobile screens, appearing as compact notifications that inform without obstructing the mobile shopping experience.
- Page-Level Controls: Show popups on all pages, or limit them to specific page types (homepage, category pages, product pages). Optionally disable popups on the checkout page to avoid distracting customers completing their purchase.
- Privacy Controls: For real order notifications, control how much information is displayed — first name only, city only, or time-since-purchase only. Comply with privacy expectations while maintaining social proof impact.
The Psychology of Social Proof
Social proof is one of the six fundamental principles of persuasion identified by Dr. Robert Cialdini. When people are uncertain about a decision — like purchasing from an unfamiliar online store — they look to the actions of others for guidance. Sales Popup provides this guidance in the most direct form possible: visible evidence that other real people are buying from your store right now.
The urgency component amplifies this effect. A steady stream of purchase notifications creates the impression of a busy, popular store where products are in demand. This scarcity perception motivates faster decision-making, reducing the "I'll think about it" hesitation that kills e-commerce conversions. Combined, social proof and urgency create a conversion environment where visitors feel confident buying and motivated to buy now rather than later.
Technical Details
- AJAX Data Fetching: Notification data is fetched via AJAX after page load, ensuring zero impact on initial page rendering speed and Core Web Vitals.
- CSS Animations: All slide-in, slide-out, and hover animations use hardware-accelerated CSS transforms for smooth 60fps performance on all devices.
- Privacy-Safe Queries: Real order queries use only first names and cities — no emails, full names, or detailed customer data is ever exposed in notification content.
- Configurable Order Recency: Set how far back to look for real orders (last 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, etc.) to ensure notifications always show recent, relevant purchases.
- Session-Aware Display: Optional session tracking prevents the same visitor from seeing the same notification twice, keeping the experience fresh across their browsing session.
- Multistore Compatible: Per-store popup configuration, order sources, and design settings.
- Compatible with PrestaShop 1.7, 8.x, and 9.x.
Why is this module unique?
