ProveSource’s Stream Notifications let you display recent sales, purchases, and user activities - like sign-ups or form submissions - as live pop-ups on your website.
These sales popups and activity alerts help build trust, create urgency, and ultimately increase conversions by showing visitors that real people are engaging with your brand.
1. Create a new notification
Go to your ProveSource dashboard.
Click New Notification.
Choose Stream as the notification type.
A Stream notification displays multiple events one after another, like a live feed of your users’ activity. You can use it to highlight real events such as sign-ups, purchases, reviews, or custom actions collected through integrations.
For example:
2. Choose your tracking source
You can collect data for your Stream Notification in several ways:
Form Submissions: automatically track forms on your site that include an email field.
Webhook: send custom data from your app or service directly into ProveSource.
Shopify / Wix / WooCommerce / Magento / BigCommerce / Thinkific: use our native integrations to connect your platform and display recent sales, purchases, or sign-ups.
Each data source feeds ProveSource with real customer activity - such as recent sales, sign-ups, or other user actions - and turns it into social proof popups that help increase trust and conversions.
