Many e-commerce businesses may not consider product badging or realize how much focus they may place on it to boost sales. You should, however, consider product badges for your website! Badging generates between $50 and $100 million in income every year, according to Monetate, a cloud-based startup that delivers in-the-moment personalization software. When comparing websites that employ badges to those that do not, this corresponds to a 55% increase in conversion rates. This article is for the Shopify merchants who want to polish their store in the sale season as well as improve conversions and branding.

Here are a few examples of product badges and how they might help you sell more:

• Social Proof: Everyone Else Is Buying It!

Customers are more likely to say yes when they see what other customers like them are buying. Product badges such as Best Seller, Staff Pick, and even Out of Stock provide social evidence to your consumers. 

Badges create Social Proof

Product labels can help you to say:

• This item was purchased by individuals just like them;

• Recommended by staff or editors;

• This product is preferred by many people so much that you cannot keep it in stock

• Limited Supply

Scarcity is evoked by badges like Almost Gone and Low Inventory. Your customers' FOMO is tapped into with these badges (fear of missing out).

• Urgency - Get It Before It's Gone

Deal of The Day and Limited Edition badges instill a feeling of urgency in buyers by indicating that they only have a certain amount of time to make a purchase. This is either because the deal is coming to an end or because the item will be gone shortly.

• Discounts and Sales 

  

Sale Badges

Deals and promotion badges encourage buyers to take advantage of the savings before they expire. Clearance, DoorBuster, Bulk Discount, and Bundle & Save product labels draw attention to your special offers and promotions. There's also the all-time favorite badge — Free Shipping!
