What it is

Social proof popups are short pop-up messages on the product page, like "👀 Victor is viewing this product right now" or "🛒 Peter just bought this". You write all the text and pick the icon yourself — no real purchase or visitor data is used, so there are no privacy concerns.

The goal is to gently signal that the product is in demand and nudge the visitor toward buying.

Adding popups

1. Open the "Popups" tab on your Checkout page.
2. Pick a product at the top — each product has its own list and settings.
3. Click "Add popup", enter the text, and optionally pick an icon from the emoji preset (or type your own).
4. Add as many popups as you'd like. Reorder with the ▲/▼ buttons, or temporarily turn an individual popup off without deleting it.
5. Turn on "Show social proof popups" and click "Save settings".

Display settings

• Interval between popups — how many seconds pass between each popup shown.
• Max shown per session — caps how many times a single visitor sees popups per visit.
• Rotation mode — "sequential" (in order) or "random" among the enabled popups.
• Screen position and display duration — where the card appears and how long it stays visible before disappearing.

The preview under the list shows the rotation live, so you can check it before saving.

What the buyer sees

Popups only appear to visitors who haven't purchased the product yet — someone who already bought won't see them. The data is loaded once when the page loads, so popups don't slow down checkout.
