Buyer Helper for PrestaShop 9 — Installments, Free Shipping Progress & Same-Day Countdown
Three conversion tools in one widget
The Buyer Helper for PrestaShop 9 is a smart widget displayed on product pages that combines three of the most effective conversion tools into a single, professional helper:
- Instalment options — show the monthly cost of the product
- Free shipping progress — how much more the customer needs to spend to unlock free delivery
- Same-day shipping countdown — a live timer showing the deadline to order and receive today
These three messages — value, free shipping, urgency — are the most powerful motivators that push a visitor to complete a purchase.
Feature breakdown
Instalment calculator
The module automatically calculates monthly instalments and displays them next to the product price. The shopper immediately sees that a €600 product costs just €50/month — and this visual shift dramatically lowers the psychological price barrier.
- Configurable number of instalments per price range
- Monthly cost shown alongside the total price
- Bank-agnostic — focuses on the psychological price presentation
Free shipping progress bar
One of the most proven tools for increasing average order value (AOV). The customer sees a progress bar showing how far they are from the free shipping threshold — e.g. "Add just €12 more for free delivery!"
- Dynamic update as quantity changes
- Configurable free shipping threshold
- Visual progress bar with colour indicator
Same-day shipping countdown
The most powerful urgency tool in the widget. The customer sees that if they order now — in X hours and Y minutes — they will receive the package today. This eliminates the procrastination that kills so many sales.
- Configurable cutoff time per day of the week
- Automatically shown only when same-day delivery is actually achievable
- Live countdown updating every second
One widget, multiple benefits
Instead of installing three separate modules, the Buyer Helper combines them all into one cohesive widget. You can configure which sections appear and in what order — full presentation flexibility.
Additional capabilities
- Per-product visibility control: Enable or disable the widget for specific products or categories.
- Section ordering: Rearrange the three elements according to your priorities.
- Responsive display: Optimised for both mobile and desktop.
The science behind conversion
Each of the three widget elements targets a different psychological barrier that prevents purchase:
- Instalments → price: "I can't afford this" → "Only €50/month — I can!"
- Progress → value: "I'll pay for shipping too" → "If I add this, shipping is free!"
- Countdown → time: "I'll order tomorrow" → "If I order now, it arrives today!"
Perfect for
Every PrestaShop store that wants to increase conversion rates, average order value, and reduce purchase procrastination — with minimal installation and configuration effort.
