  • Product Title

  • Product Handle

  • Variant Title

  • Customer's Wishlist Created Date

  • Customer’s Wishlist Name

The app backend displays a real-time data overview to track performance, engagement, and ROI metrics:


  • Core Store Performance: Total Revenue from Wishlist, Average Order Value (AOV), and total Number of Saved for Later Items.

Automated Email Triggers

Email Customization & Deliverability Controls

When a shopper adds a product to their wishlist, the app triggers a temporary pop-up window to confirm the action.


Notification Appearance & Placement

  • Position Controls: Place the notification pop-up in the top-left, top-right, bottom-left, or bottom-right corners of the page.

  • Style Formats: Choose between clean Plain text notifications or Visual notifications that showcase the image of the product added to the list.

  • Direct Email
