Show Real-time Orders
Real-time orders: Show your customers real-time orders. These are orders that are being placed on your online store as the customers browse through them.
Customize real-time orders: Customize your real-time orders to show the notifications of orders that are completed, pending, processing, or cancelled orders. If a product just completely sold out with the most recent order, then you can choose not to display that order in the notification.
Boost customer engagement: Boost your customer engagement by creating a sense of urgency! Write down cool tag lines that take in real values like the state and/or country, the product name, and the time of sale of the product. For example, your notification could go like “Someone from Arizona, USA just bought a Sea-Dweller Rolex Watch 15 seconds ago.”
Configure across pages and devices: Determine where and where not to display the sale notifications. For example, you can easily and effortlessly configure the Fommerce WooCommerce Plugin to display the notification on the home page and hide it on the cart and checkout page using a simple toggle button. Replicate this for both desktop and mobile version of your store. You can also choose to hide the notifications on either the desktop or the mobile or both these devices.
Show Virtual Orders
Customized virtual orders: Customize virtual orders to boost the sales of your products that need a kick start. Often times, a single virtual order is what might prompt your customers to start buying a new product in your store. Design attractive virtual order notifications for your store with Fommerce.
Show orders for Select Products: If a product isn’t selling as it is supposed to, then show order notifications for that particular product to increase its conversion ratio.
Show orders for select categories: Show order notifications for select a category of products! This feature can be used to promote the sales of a specific category of products in your store that you want to concentrate on. Whether it is ceramic cutlery, pleasant interior decors, or android mobiles, you choose the product that gets the most attention.
You can also choose to divert attention to a specific category of products on specific days you offer discounts and coupons for those products.
Detect IP address: Detect the IP address of the visitors to your store to create virtual sale notifications near their location for products they are looking for.
Get Creative: Fommerce has unlimited potential. Just add a little bit of spice to it by displaying eye-catching and compelling tag lines.

Get yours now!” and then add the link to your product on your notification.

You can also choose to display the product image, select an image from your existing media library, or upload new images, or display no image at all.
Message: This makes up the text within the notification, the primary message that you want your customers to read. You can construct this message with a number of pre-sets like the ‘first name,’ ‘last name,’ ‘city,’ ‘state,’ or ‘country’ of residence of a customer who just bought a certain ‘product’ of a certain ‘star rating’ at a certain ‘time.’ You can do more by setting defaults for the location, time, and date, etc. or let Fommerce auto-detect these values.

Actions
Initial delay: Initial delay lets you determine the delay with which the notification pops-up on the user’s screen once they visit your website. You can set this delay anywhere between 0 seconds to n seconds, as you see fit.
Display time: In the display time field, you can set the time duration for which each notification is displayed to the customer. Set this time anywhere between 1 second to n seconds. For example, when this is set to 5 seconds, each notification will be displayed for exactly 5 seconds to the customer.
Delay between notifications: The delay between notifications if the time interval between one notification and another. If this delay is set to 10-seconds, then each notification will pop-up in exactly 10 second intervals.

Sound: You can choose from a list of seven different notification sounds. Even if the user navigates to another tab after visiting your website, this will let them know that they’ve received a notification on your website. You can select the ‘none’ option if you do not want a sound to accompany your pop-up notification.
Loop notifications: This option lets you loop notifications so that they appear again in order once the preordained list expires. This means that, if you set 3 notifications, then the 1st notification is bound to repeat itself after all three notifications are displayed.
