How to Create Conversion Notifications on Your Website (2026)

A conversion notification is a small popup that shows visitors when someone just signed up, booked, started a trial or downloaded something on your site. Build one in WiserNotify with the Recent Leads or Lead Counter notification, connect your forms, and publish it in 9 steps.

It shows real sign-ups from your forms, so new visitors see that other people take the same step.

Below are the steps with screenshots, the two variants, how form capture works, and what to check when nothing shows.

What Can a Conversion Notification Show?

It works for any action a visitor completes on a form or in a connected tool.

• Sign-ups and free trials: the main use for SaaS conversions.
• Bookings and registrations: webinar sign-ups and event registrations.
• Downloads: ebook and guide downloads.
• Subscriptions: newsletter and channel joins.

Recent Leads or Lead Counter?

WiserNotify has two variants, and they answer different questions.

• Recent Leads: shows one conversion at a time, such as a name, a place and how long ago they signed up.
• Lead Counter: shows how many conversions happened in a period you choose.

Pick Recent Leads when the story is a person, and Lead Counter when the number is the story. The steps are the same for both.

How to Create a Conversion Notification

The setup has two parts. The pixel connects your site to WiserNotify, and the dashboard builds the notification.

The video walks through the same flow from the dashboard.

Step 1: Sign Up for WiserNotify

1. Go to the WiserNotify sign-up page, where a 7-day free trial begins at once.
2. Create the account with your email or your Google login.
3. If you already have one, log in and move to Step 2.

Step 2: Copy and Install Your Pixel

1. In WiserNotify, open the Install Pixel page and click Copy code.
2. Add the pixel to your site. The same page lists a setup guide for your platform.
3. Put the pixel on every page where you want notifications or form capture.

Step 3: Verify the Pixel

1. Open your site once so the pixel loads.
2. Go back to the Install Pixel page and click Verify pixel installation.
3. Look for the Pixel Active message.

Step 4: Add the Notification

1. Click Add notification.
2. Under Social proof, pick Recent Leads or Lead Counter.
3. Click Add.

Step 5: Name It and Add Your Site

1. Give it a name you will recognize later, such as Sign-up notification.
2. Enter the site address where it should show. You can add more than one site.
3. Click Create and Customize.

Step 6: Design the Notification

1. In Text editor, write the message. Placeholders such as the time ago fill in from each conversion.
2. In Click actions, link it to a page so the notification is clickable.
3. In Position and animation and Style, pick a corner, an animation, colors and fonts, and preview mobile and desktop.
4. In Data control and Timing control, set the first delay, how long it stays and the gap between notifications. Then click Save.

Step 7: Choose Where It Shows

1. Click Next to reach the Display tab.
2. Keep All pages, or use a URL rule to show it on specific pages.
3. Target by new or returning visitors, UTM campaign, referrer site or cookies.

Step 8: Connect Your Data and Publish

1. Click Next to reach the Data source tab.
2. Leave Auto capture forms on, so the pixel reads sign-ups from your forms. Or click Add integration and pick your form or CRM tool from the list.
3. Turn on data filters if you want to hide some entries, as in this video.
4. Click Save, then Publish, and turn it on when asked.

Step 9: Check It on Your Site

1. Open your site in a private window.
2. Submit your own form once to create a test conversion.
3. Wait for the notification to appear after the first delay you set. It looks like the one above.

The Recent Leads guide and the Lead Counter guide list every option.

How WiserNotify Captures Form Data

The pixel can read a form when a visitor submits it. It collects the name, IP address and location.

• All pages: capture from every page where the pixel is installed.
• Capture when a condition matches: limit capture to pages whose URL contains, equals or matches a pattern, or exclude pages that do not.
• Integrations: pull conversions from ClickFunnels, Typeform, Jotform, Gravity Forms, Facebook Lead Ads and 250+ other platforms.

The form capture guide shows each condition with examples.

Where to Show Conversion Notifications

• Landing pages: a sign-up notice next to the form shows that others join.
• Pricing and trial pages: proof here eases the last doubt before a start.
• Webinar and event pages: registration notices show the session is filling up.
• Blog posts: a notice on a high-traffic post turns readers into sign-ups.

Conversion Notification Not Showing?

• Pixel not detected: open your site, then verify the pixel again on the Install Pixel page.
• Not published: saving is not enough. Click Publish and turn it on.
• No data yet: a notification has nothing to show until a conversion is captured or an integration sends one.
• Capture rule too tight: check the Data source tab, since a URL condition can skip the page your form is on.
• Integration not ticked: the notification reads only the sources ticked in its Data source tab.
• Filters hiding entries: turn off the data filters and test again.
• Page rule too tight: the Display tab may leave out the page you are testing.
• Cached page: check from a private window.

Your notification list flags a live notification WiserNotify has not seen in a day and links a Troubleshoot page. Live chat helps too.

Conversion Notification Tips

• Use real conversions: the notification reads your forms, so the proof stays true.
• Write a short line: a name, a place and the action read in one glance.
• Delay the first one: a few seconds lets visitors see the page before it appears.
• Make it clickable: link it to the page that holds your form.
• Test on mobile: check the corner and size on a phone.

Conversion Notification Mistakes

• Showing it on every page: match the notification to pages where the action happens.
• Stacking popups: too many notices crowd a small screen.
• Skipping the filters: hide test sign-ups and your own team before you publish.
• Forgetting to publish: a saved design does nothing until it is on.

Wrap Up

A conversion notification turns each sign-up into proof for the next visitor. Install the pixel, pick Recent Leads or Lead Counter, connect your forms and publish.

Start with your main landing page, then add more pages once the first one works.
