Social Proof Badges
Display cumulative purchase statistics to prove product popularity and increase trust.
Overview
Unlike Purchase Notifications which show individual sales, Social Proof Badges show aggregate data like "⭐ 127 people bought this today". This provides immediate validation for new visitors.
Settings
Content
- Time Periods: Show sales for Today, This Week, This Month, or All Time.
- Format: Compact ("127 today") vs Full ("127 people bought today").
- Icons: Add visual cues like Stars, People, or Fire icons.
Styling
Pill Style
Modern & Rounded
Box Style
Traditional & Structured
Data Rules
- Min Threshold: Hide badge if sales count is low (e.g., under 5).
- Rounding: Round numbers (e.g., "1.2k+" instead of "1243") for cleaner look.
Strategy
Combine badges with Purchase Notifications. The notification grabs attention, while the badge provides lasting proof of popularity.
