Any new Purchase will be added to your Purchases Data Feed. To turn these data into Social Proof Nudges on your site, create a Purchase Nudge and select Elopage as the data source.

Once you’re done, click “Continue”. The Nudge will now automatically capture and show individual recent Purchases. You can track how your Nudges perform from your Statistics page.
