How to integrate Flowstar Sales Notification with Webflow

Flowstar Sales Notification is a social proof app that displays real-time purchase alerts on Webflow e-commerce stores through customizable popups.

Flowstar offers two integration methods: use the app from the Webflow Apps marketplace for a no-code setup, or add notification code through custom embeds for more control over placement. Flowstar operates as a closed application, with no webhook capabilities or public API endpoints.

Use the Flowstar Sales Notification app

The Flowstar Sales Notification marketplace app lets you add purchase notifications to your Webflow site without coding. Install directly from the Webflow Apps marketplace to display customizable popups showing recent orders. This method requires a Webflow e-commerce plan.

The app displays real-time sales alerts through customizable popups where you control appearance, timing, and positioning through the app's settings interface. Specific implementation details require contacting Flowstar support (hi@flowstar.co), as no publicly accessible technical documentation is currently available.

The app provides the following capabilities:

• Display real-time purchase alerts from your Webflow store
• Customize popup colors, fonts, and layout
• Control notification frequency and display duration
• Position notifications anywhere on your pages

The app requires multiple permissions, including read/write custom code access, read/write site data and publishing capabilities, read access to e-commerce store data, and read access to assets and page data. Review the permissions list before installing to understand what data the app can access.

Add notification code through custom embeds

Custom code embed elements give you control over where notifications appear on specific pages. This method requires contacting Flowstar support at hi@flowstar.co to obtain your embed code, as there is no public documentation for this setup.

Once you have the embed code, add it using the Webflow custom code embed element. For site-wide deployment, paste the embed code in Site Settings > Custom Code > Before \ tag. Use page-specific embeds when you want notifications on select pages rather than site-wide.

The embed code displays notifications after your page content loads. Since Webflow e-commerce activation is permanent and e-commerce collections cannot be deleted after creation, test on a staging site first.

You can place embed code in the following locations:

• Page-specific embeds using the custom code embed element
• Site-wide footer code through Site Settings > Custom Code
• Individual page code in Page Settings > Custom Code for targeted placement
