The addon is designed to increase the conversion rates of the iproduct detailed page by placing a special block with content, that will create motives for the user to make a purchase (tested at more than 1000 stores, the effect of increasing the conversion is guaranteed).

The content of this block is displayed with the accordion effect, which opens by clicking on the header the contents of each motivational message, which consists of the following elements:

  • the header -  reflects the essence of the motivational message (for example, Free Shipping, Original Products Only, Worldwide Shipping);
  • icon - visualizes and shares among themselves motivational messages in the block;
  • block content (with Smarty support) - expands the essence of the motivational message with information (displayed by clicking on the message header).

Store administrator can flexibly manage the contents of each block (create new ones, change the order of display in the list). 

Each block element can be dependent on the main product category and user location (when changing the user’s location, the contents of the block will be overloaded using Ajax). In this way:

  • for products from different categories, you can show different motivating messages;
  • for users from different tariff zones (delivery zones in CS-Cart), different contents of block elements can be shown.

The correct use of motivational messages in the store will significantly increase the conversion rates of the product card (the percentage of users who make a purchase will increase).

When installing the module, a demo block will be added, with recommended content, which can be edited for the user's needs.

For CS-Cart Multivendor editions, the administrator can create a blank (block plan) with default filling and allow vendors to manage the contents of specific blocks (for which the option allowing editing is set).

The module is compatible only with UniTheme2 (included in the scope of delivery).
