CI Proof Widget Integration

Add real-time social proof to your product pages. Show actual views and purchases, not fake counters.

To integrate CI Proof, you will need API credentials from Commerce Index.

Visit the CI Proof Page

Go to /proof and click “Talk to Us About Activating Proof”

Submit Your Information

Company name, website URL, estimated monthly page views, contact email

Receive Your Credentials

Within 1-2 business days, you will receive:

brand_id - Your unique brand identifier
api_key - API key for server-side calls
public_key - Public key for client-side snippet

Step 2: Choose Integration Method

JavaScript Snippet (Recommended)

1. Add the Snippet

Add this to your product pages, before the closing </body> tag:

<!-- Commerce Index Proof Widget -->
<script>
  (function(w, d, s, o, f, js, fjs) {
    w['CIProof'] = o;
    w[o] = w[o] || function() { (w[o].q = w[o].q || []).push(arguments) };
    js = d.createElement(s); fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
    js.id = o; js.src = f; js.async = 1;
    fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
  }(window, document, 'script', 'ciproof', 'https://cdn.commerceindex.com/proof.js'));

  ciproof('init', {
    brandId: 'YOUR_BRAND_ID',
    publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY'
  });
</script>
