Prices change, so confirm with ProveSource before buying. ## Ways to pay less - **Plans for nonprofits and schools** (Nonprofit): The pricing FAQ says non-profits, NGOs and educational institutions can ask support about special plans. Source: https://provesrc.com/pricing/ ## Key features - **Recent activity streams:** A stream notification shows individual actions such as signups or purchases, and a combo notification shows how many people acted over the last 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. - **Live visitors and counters:** Show a real-time visitor count on the site, or a counter of followers, subscribers and likes across social profiles. - **Review notifications:** Pull in reviews from sources such as Google, Facebook, Trustpilot, Yotpo and Capterra and display them as notifications. - **Display and timing rules:** Set position, delay between notifications, pages shown, hide on mobile, show only conversions from the visitor's country, and hide anonymous or product details. - **Webhooks and auto tracking:** Post conversions from your own server through webhooks, or capture submissions from a custom web form automatically. - **Analytics and goals:** The dashboard reports visitors, impressions, hovers and clicks against the prior period, broken down by page, notification, device and country, with goal and revenue tracking. ## Good for - Online stores that want recent-purchase notifications on Shopify or WooCommerce - Very small sites: the free plan covers 1,000 monthly visitors - Marketers who want a flat price by traffic with no per-impression charge ## Worth knowing - Free-plan notifications carry ProveSource branding; custom branding needs a paid plan. - At the visitor limit the vendor stops showing notifications to new visitors until the period resets or you upgrade. - The Boost widget set (popups, spin to win, bars, timers) is a separate product with its own plans: Free for 3 widgets, Pro at $24 per month. - The largest plan listed is Gorilla at 500K monthly visitors; the pricing page shows nothing above it. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026.
