Today, we’re excited to announce a major upgrade for WooCommerce store owners: PingBell for WooCommerce, our brand-new, officially released WordPress plugin that turns your store activity into real-time, embeddable counters you can place anywhere.
If you’ve ever wanted to show live sales, track product interest, boost conversions with social proof, or visualize store activity on a dashboard, this plugin was built for you.
đź‘€ Why Live Counters?
The modern shopper expects more than static product pages. They want proof, momentum, and signals that others are actively buying.
With PingBell linked to your WooCommerce store, you can:
✔️ Display live order counters
Show real-time purchase activity on landing pages, in product descriptions, or anywhere you can embed HTML.
✔️ Show add-to-cart counters
Track how many people added a product to their cart today, this hour, or since launch.
✔️ Boost conversions with social proof
Seeing active shoppers increases trust and reduces hesitation.
✔️ Track store activity on a TV or dashboard
Our spectator mode lets you keep a live Ops dashboard running in your office or ecommerce war room.
✔️ Celebrate milestones
Perfect for countdown launches, limited stock, flash sales, and live events.
And now, connecting WooCommerce to PingBell is easier than ever.
🎉 Meet the PingBell for WooCommerce Plugin
Our official plugin integrates PingBell directly into your WordPress admin—no more manually creating webhooks, formatting URLs, or juggling API endpoints.
Once installed, you’ll get:
🔌 A clean dashboard inside WooCommerce
Located at WooCommerce → PingBell, you’ll find:
- A field for your API key
- A button to fetch all your PingBell counters
- A dropdown to select WooCommerce events
- One-click creation of webhook connections
- Direct buttons to Edit Counter or View Counter
⚡ Automatic webhook creation
Every time you add a connection, the plugin:
- Creates a WooCommerce webhook
- Connects the event to your chosen counter
🔄 Events you can bind to counters
Out of the box, the plugin supports:
- New order created
- Order paid (Pending → Processing)
- Order completed
- Order updated
- Order deleted
- Product Added to Cart (a custom WooCommerce action we added because it’s just that useful!)
🗑️ One-click cleanup
Removing a connection also deletes the webhook automatically—clean, safe, and fully reversible.
