## Description

ProveSource Boost turns visitors into subscribers and buyers with the widgets stores
already know work: an email popup that gives a discount code, a spin-the-wheel or
scratch card game, a free shipping bar, a countdown to the end of a sale, and a 
floating WhatsApp or call button. You design them in the Boost dashboard, and this
plugin puts them on your WordPress site.

Click Connect with Boost, sign in or sign up for free, and approve the site. From
then on every widget you switch on in Boost shows on your site, and a widget you
make next week appears without touching WordPress again.

#### What you can add to your site

 * Email popups that trade a discount code, a guide or a newsletter for an email
   address. The code is revealed after signup, with a copy button.
 * Spin the wheel, scratch card and pick-a-gift games. The visitor plays for a prize
   and leaves an email to claim it. Prizes are drawn on our server, not in the browser,
   each with its own odds and an optional cap on how many times it can be won.
 * Announcement bars for free shipping, a sale or a launch, pinned to the top or
   bottom of the page, with an optional countdown and button.
 * Countdown timers inside the page, next to a product or a pricing table, counting
   down to a date or to a fixed time after each visitor arrives.
 * WhatsApp and call buttons that float in a corner and open a chat or dial your
   number.

#### Discount codes applied at checkout on WooCommerce

Turn on “Apply it at checkout” on a popup or a game in Boost, and on a WooCommerce
store the plugin puts the code the visitor won straight into their cart. If the 
cart is empty, the code waits and is applied to the first product they add. It only
applies codes that exist as coupons in your WooCommerce store, and every rule you
set on the coupon still counts.

#### Show each widget to the right visitors

Every widget has its own rules in the Boost editor: the pages it shows on or skips,
new or returning visitors, mobile or desktop, the site the visitor came from, and
their country. It opens after a delay, on scroll, on exit intent, after a period
of inactivity, after a number of pages, or when a visitor clicks something on your
page. It remembers who closed it and for how long, and a start and end date lets
you set up a Black Friday popup in advance.

#### Where the leads go

Every lead is saved in your Boost account with its page, country and any extra fields
you asked for, and exports to CSV. Per widget, Boost can also email you each new
lead, add it to a Klaviyo list, or send it to a webhook for Zapier, Make, n8n or
your own system.

Views, clicks, closes and leads are reported to Google Analytics 4 or Tag Manager,
the Meta pixel and the TikTok pixel already on your page, so a lead can count as
a conversion in your ad account.

#### Made for WordPress

 * One site-wide tag: popups, games, bars and buttons show on every page with nothing
   else to set up.
 * The Boost Widget block places a countdown timer or an inline custom widget exactly
   where you want it, picked from a list of your widgets.
 * A Boost Widget element for Elementor, and the `[provesource_boost key="WIDGET_KEY"]`
   shortcode for Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, the classic editor and widget areas.
 * Caching and speed plugins: the plugin keeps WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache and Cloudflare
   Rocket Loader from delaying the Boost script until the first click, which would
   stop timed and exit-intent popups from ever opening.

Connecting is optional. If you would rather not, paste the site-wide install code
from Boost into the plugin’s settings.

#### Free plan and Pro

The free plan includes 3 widgets, 1,000 widget views a month, unlimited leads, every
widget type and 3 AI generations a month, with a small ProveSource badge on each
widget. Pro is $24 a month or $195 a year for unlimited widgets and views, no badge
and 30 AI generations a month. See [provesrc.com/boost](https://provesrc.com/boost/).
Your visitors never see upgrade messages.

#### Support

Write to us from “Contact us” in the Boost dashboard, or through the chat there.
ProveSource Boost is made by the team behind [ProveSource](https://provesrc.com)
social proof notifications and [Shapo](https://shapo.io) reviews and testimonials.

### External services

This plugin connects your site to ProveSource Boost, a service operated by Configo
LTD, to show the widgets you make there. Nothing is sent before you click Connect
with Boost or paste an install code.
 [Terms of service](https://provesrc.com/terms/),
[privacy policy](https://provesrc.com/privacy/).

 * **Widgets on your pages.** On every front-end page where Boost is on, the visitor’s
   browser loads `boost.js` from `cdn.provesrc.com` and asks `client-api.provesrc.
   com` for the widgets to show, sending the page address. When a visitor sees, 
   clicks or closes a widget, the widget key and the page address are sent. When
   a visitor submits a widget’s form, what they typed (an email, and a name or other
   fields you asked for), the page address and the referring page are sent. The 
   visitor’s IP address is used to decide their country for country rules and is
   not stored. Images you upload in Boost load from `boost-cdn.provesrc.com`; a 
   video you add to a popup loads from YouTube (`youtube-nocookie.com`) or Vimeo;
   a WhatsApp button opens `wa.me`.
 * **Connect.** Clicking Connect with Boost opens `boost.provesrc.com` with your
   site’s address and name. After you approve the site, the plugin sends a one-time
   code, your site’s address and the plugin version to `api.provesrc.com` in exchange
   for a connection token, then uses the token to fetch your widget list. The token
   can read your widgets’ names, types and status and your site key, nothing else.
 * **WooCommerce codes.** When a visitor wins a code on a widget with “Apply it 
   at checkout” turned on, the code is sent to your own site, not to ProveSource,
   and applied to their cart.
 * **Disconnect and uninstall.** Disconnecting, or deleting the plugin while connected,
   tells `api.provesrc.com` to revoke the connection token.

## FAQ

### Do I need a ProveSource Boost account?

Yes. Widgets are designed and stored in Boost, and the free plan is enough for everything
in this plugin. You can sign up while connecting.

### Is this the same as the ProveSource social proof plugin?

No. The ProveSource plugin shows recent sales and signups as social proof notifications.
Boost is for popups, games, bars, timers and buttons. They are separate products
from the same company, and both plugins can run on one site.

### How do I show a popup on some pages only?

Set it in the widget’s rules in the Boost editor: show it on pages whose address
contains a word, or skip those pages. The site-wide tag loads every widget you switched
on, and each one checks its own rules.

### Can I keep Boost off a page entirely, like the checkout?

Yes. Return false from the `psboost_load_site_tag` filter on that page.

### Why does my countdown timer not show?

A timer draws inside the page, so it needs a place: add the Boost Widget block, 
the Elementor element or the shortcode where it should appear. Popups, games, bars
and buttons need no place.

### Does it work with my caching plugin?

Yes. Widgets are drawn in the visitor’s browser, so a cached page shows your latest
changes from Boost. The plugin also keeps WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache and Cloudflare
Rocket Loader from delaying the script.

### Will it slow my site down?

The plugin adds one script, loaded with `async` at the end of the page from our 
CDN, so it never blocks your page from rendering. The plugin adds nothing to your
database beyond its settings.

### Does it set cookies? Is it GDPR friendly?

The widgets set no cookies. They keep a few small flags in the visitor’s browser
storage: whether this is a returning visitor, how many pages they viewed this visit,
and when they closed or filled in a widget, so it does not reappear too soon. A 
lead’s email is sent to Boost only when the visitor types it in and submits the 
form, and you can add a consent line to any form. See External services below for
exactly what is sent.

### Will a popup hurt my SEO?

No. Search engine crawlers are never served popups or games, since a popup that 
covers the page is what search engines penalize. Bars, timers and buttons sit in
the page like content, so crawlers see those.

### What happens when I disconnect?

The plugin stops listing your widgets, and the widgets keep showing until you switch
off the site-wide tag. Deleting the plugin removes its settings and the connection.
