About the Product Badge Element
GemPages’ Product Badge element is designed to emphasize key details about a product, such as labeling a new arrival or showcasing a promotion directly on the featured image.
With this element, you can gain multiple advantages for your eCommerce store:
- Enhanced Visibility: Increase product visibility by making particular items stand out, ensuring they capture customers’ attention.
- Increased Brand Trust: Boost credibility with badges like “Top Rated” or “Customer Favorite”, showcasing positive reviews and endorsements to build trust with buyers.
- Encouraged Action: Create urgency with badges like “Only 2 Left!” or “Ending Soon,” prompting customers to act quickly and complete their purchases.
- Tested Pricing Strategy: Experiment and determine the most effective pricing strategy for each item by offering different discounts for every product.
- Enhanced Inventory Management: Sell slow-moving or excess items more quickly, cutting storage costs and making room for new stock with badges like “Stock Clearance” or “Inventory Reduction”.
- Targeted Promotion: Set different discounts for various product categories, inventory levels, or sales goals. Badges like “Category Sale”, “Seasonal Promotion”, or “Weekly Deal” make it easier to create promotions that match their business needs.
How to Add the Product Badge Element
Step 1: Open your GemPages editor and locate the Product Badge Element in the search bar.
Step 2: Drag the element from the sidebar and drop it into your design area. You can only add the Product Badge to a Product element, Product List element, or directly on their Product Images. Badge settings may vary depending on its placement.
Step 3: You can add multiple badges to the same product. By default, badges appear in the top-left corner. If multiple badges are added, they will stack vertically. To adjust their order or visibility, use the Layer Tree feature.
Step 4: After placing your badges, click Publish to see them live. In the editor, badges are always visible for easier adjustments, but they only appear on the live page if they meet the display conditions you set.
To access badge settings, click on the element. The left sidebar will show two tabs: Settings and Advanced:
