Description
Show recent sales notifications with ease! This free plugin adds a recent sales popup to your WooCommerce store, boosting trust with live sales alerts and real-time conversion triggers.
Here are some of the important features of the Live sales notification for WooCommerce:
Core features
- No need to connect your WooCommerce store with a backend platform like other plugins require
- Show original orders placed as a live sales feed to other visitors
- There is no restriction on the number of products that will be shown, as other plugins have in their Free version
- If you don’t have a large number of orders then you can show virtual orders as well
- Virtual orders can be generated from visitors’ recent product views; in this case their recently viewed product will be shown in the notification. This will encourage the visitor to buy it.
- Create virtual orders from your selected products
- You can create a custom message that will be shown in the notification, e.g.: Mr. Dave from New York just purchased XYZ
- You can customize the message using shortcodes like {date}, {time}, {first_name}, {city}, {state}, {country}, {product}, {price}
- When the order is original, this shortcode information comes from the original order; when the order is virtual, this information is auto-generated for you
- Set how old orders should be extracted for the notification; you can set this in weeks, months, and hours.
- Select products from categories to create virtual orders
- Fast and lightweight.
- Boosts sales and conversion rate.
Layout features

- Disable notification on mobile; mobile breakpoint starts from 968px
- Notification width, image width in the notification
- Link image to product or not

- Background color of the notification
- Position of the notification
- Text color, font size, and weight of the notification text
- You can even customize color, font size, and weight for each of the texts coming from shortcodes, so you can have different font size for {date}, and a different font size for {product}
- You can disable the closing notification option for the user, so the user can’t close the notification
