Provedly vs Vitals

Vitals replaces a stack of separate Shopify apps with one subscription: reviews, bundles and upsells, recent sales notifications, trust badges, a countdown timer, stock scarcity, visitor replays and more. Its sales notifications are filled from the store's real orders and add-to-carts, and its listing carries the Built for Shopify badge with a 4.9-star rating from about 2,980 reviews. It is sold as one $29.99/mo plan with a 7-day trial and usage fees above a level of Vitals-attributed sales.

What Vitals does well

  • One app covers reviews, bundles, upsells, trust badges, sales notifications, a countdown timer, stock scarcity and visitor replays
  • Sales notifications come from real store orders and add-to-carts, and Vitals states that no setting makes one up
  • Stock scarcity counts are read live from Shopify inventory per variant
  • Built for Shopify badge and a 4.9-star rating from about 2,980 reviews, with support frequently praised
  • Countdown timer runs to one start and end date for every shopper and is removed when the date passes

Where Provedly differs

  • Provedly applies a verified mark only to records that arrived through a signed Stripe, Shopify or WooCommerce webhook and publishes a verification page per widget; Vitals draws notifications from store orders but does not describe a verification mark or a public page.
  • Provedly's sales toasts come from webhooks as orders arrive; Vitals collects the latest orders every few hours and says a new order shows within about 6 hours.
  • Provedly has a live viewer counter that counts visitors in the last 90 seconds and hides below a minimum; no live visitor counter was found on the Vitals pages reviewed.
  • Provedly offers an evergreen per-visitor timer with a hard campaign expiry alongside fixed-date countdowns; Vitals retired its restarting Evergreen timer in August 2026 and now runs one fixed countdown per sale.
  • Provedly runs on any site through one script, on WordPress through its plugin and on Shopify through its app; Vitals is a Shopify app.
  • Provedly prices by impressions with a 2,000-impression free plan; Vitals is one $29.99/mo plan with usage fees tied to Vitals-attributed sales.

Choose Vitals if

Shopify stores that want reviews, bundles, upsells and basic urgency tools from one subscription instead of many apps.

Choose Provedly if

Stores that want purchase toasts marked verified only from signed webhooks, a real live counter, a public verification page and an impression-priced free plan, on Shopify or any other site.

Are Vitals sales notifications real?
Vitals says every notification comes from a real order or add-to-cart in the store and that no setting makes one up; with fewer than 10 orders it shows real add-to-carts instead. Its pages do not describe a verification mark or a page shoppers can open. Provedly marks a purchase verified only when it arrives through a signed webhook and links every badge to a public verification page.
Can I use Vitals and Provedly together?
Yes. Many stores use Vitals for reviews, bundles and upsells. If you prefer Provedly for purchase toasts, the live counter and CTA bars, switch off the overlapping Vitals tools so visitors do not see two sets of notifications.
How does pricing compare?
Vitals is $29.99/mo for all tools after a 7-day trial, with usage fees once Vitals-attributed sales pass about $1,000 a month. Provedly is free for 2,000 impressions per month, $9/mo for 25,000 and $29/mo for 150,000.
