Sawir Pulse – Live Sales & Social Proof for WooCommerce

Description

Sawir Pulse shows visitors what is genuinely happening in your store, as small corner notifications:

  • Recent orders — “Rina from Jakarta bought Batik Tote · 12 mins ago · Verified order”
  • Live viewers — “4 people are viewing this product right now”
  • Reviews — snippets from your approved 4–5 star product reviews

Every notification comes from real activity. There is no option to invent purchases or inflate numbers — fake social proof is deceptive to shoppers and a legal risk for store owners, so Sawir Pulse simply does not do it. A brand-new store shows live viewer and review activity from day one, and purchase notifications appear as real orders come in.

Features

  • Real orders, live viewer counts, and review snippets — pick any combination
  • Inline “12 sold this week” badge on product pages (only when a product really sells 3+ units in a week)
  • See how often notifications were shown and clicked this month, right in settings
  • Privacy-first: shows first name and city only, with a one-click option to anonymize (“Someone from Jakarta”)
  • Hidden on cart and checkout by default to keep purchases distraction-free
  • Visitors can dismiss notifications for their session
  • Lightweight: one small stylesheet and one small script, no external services, no jQuery
  • Respects reduced-motion preferences; screen-reader friendly
  • Themeable via CSS custom properties
  • HPOS compatible

FAQ

Can I create custom or fake notifications?

No, and this is deliberate. Fabricated social proof misleads shoppers and can violate consumer-protection law. Sawir Pulse only ever shows real orders, real viewers, and real reviews.

What customer data is shown?

At most a first name and city from the billing address, alongside the product purchased. Enable “Hide customer names” to show “Someone from Jakarta” instead. Viewer counts are computed from a short-lived salted hash — no IP addresses or personal data are stored.

My store is new and has no orders. What will visitors see?

Live viewer counts and review snippets, if you have them. Purchase notifications appear automatically once real orders exist. If there is no real activity yet, nothing is shown — which is exactly as it should be.
