Notify Customers about the Stock Status of Your Products and Accelerate Their Purchasing Decisions

Recent researches discovered that many customers save products in their carts for further consideration and do not purchase immediately.* These customers are in a situation of choice and mostly need some incentives proceeding their purchases. But they will certainly hurry with the decision, either positive or negative, if get a notification about a low stock of the product they intent to purchase.

On Sale + Product Labels

One more extension providing extra information about product statuses to customers is On Sale + Product Labels. The module provides almost unlimited opportunities for creating visually-appealing labels to product images.

Product labels can be placed on product or category pages, applied to different stores, displayed to different customers’ groups.

You can: add your own images for labels, upload images or just specify a target path to them, choose the label's position using the live preview selector, create special labels for new products, customize a label for every product. You can configure labels’ text using special variables:

• #DA# - discount amount


• #RP# - regular price


• #SP# - special price


• #SA# - save amount (RP-SP)


• #NL# - new line


• #ND# - life time in days


• #NH# - life time in hours


• #SK# - product SKU


• #ST# - in stock amount


• #CA:attribute_code# - custom attribute

Labels positions are defined by default: top-left, top-center, top-right, middle-left, middle-center, middle-right, bottom-left, bottom-center, and bottom-right.

Labels are displayed according to label rules which are triggered by definite rule conditions, and you can limit rule duration and its priority.

The functionality of the On Sale + Product Labels extension is so valuable and useful that many of our customers (Magento store owners and developers) purchase it twice or more.

"We have purchased the module second time for another customer :) Great Module!
