Sales Popup shows a small popup such as “Someone in Shah Alam bought Office Chair, 2 hours ago”. Every popup comes from a real, paid order in your shop. Sales Popup has no setting to invent orders, buyers, reviews or numbers, and never will.
You decide how much of the buyer is shown. By default no name is shown (“Someone”), and the buyer can untick a box at checkout to keep their purchase out of the popup.
Only orders with status Processing or Completed are shown. Refunded, cancelled, failed, pending and on-hold orders never appear. If there are no orders in the time window, nothing is shown: no empty box, no sample.

Pro version (paid upgrade, sold separately)
The Pro code is not included in this version, and nothing in this plugin is locked or time-limited. Pro costs US$4.99 per month or US$39 per year and adds:
Sales Popup shows data from orders on your own site to your visitors, as described above. It saves your settings, and one flag on an order when the buyer unticks the checkout box (_salepop_hide). Sales Popup Free stores nothing in the visitor’s browser except session flags that keep the popup from repeating (salepop_seen, salepop_closed, salepop_own, in session storage). The Pro report stores only daily counts of popup views and clicks, plus a flag (_salepop_click) on an order placed within 7 days after a popup click in the same browser (this uses one first-party cookie, salepop_click, set at checkout for up to 7 days, and the browser’s local storage, both only in the Pro version); it stores no IP address, no visitor profile and no personal data. Uninstall cleanup is for a single site, not a multisite network. Uninstalling removes the settings, the counts table and the banner preference. Order flags are kept, because they are the buyer’s choice.
