Price drop alerts
The moment a price drops, your shoppers hear it first.
InfiQ watches the products your shoppers save and sends a WhatsApp alert the second the price falls below their threshold. Typical alerts see 41% click-through and convert around 3× better than the same message sent on email.

Use cases
How price drop alerts teams use InfiQ
Price-watch triggers
Fire an alert automatically when a webhook or catalog sync shows a saved product falling below the shopper's target price.
One-tap opt-in
Add a 'Notify me on WhatsApp' button to product pages or a QR code in-store — every consent is timestamped and stored against the number.
Urgency windows
Hold the alerted price for a stated window — 30 minutes to 24 hours — and say so in the message; short windows typically lift conversion 20-30%.
Threshold rules
Only send when a drop clears the bar you set — say 10% or ₹500 — so shoppers get 2-3 meaningful alerts a month instead of daily noise.
Stock-aware sends
Suppress alerts when inventory falls below a floor you choose, or append a live stock count like 'only 6 left' pulled at send time.
Lift measurement
Track delivered, read, clicked and purchased for every alert, and run a 10% holdout group to prove incremental revenue, not just clicks.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do shoppers have to opt in before I send price drop alerts?
Yes. Price drop alerts are marketing messages under Meta's rules, so you need explicit opt-in — a 'notify me' tap, a checkout checkbox or a QR scan all work. InfiQ stores consent records, audit logs and access controls so you can show exactly when and where each shopper opted in.
Do I need a separate template for every product?
No. You build one price drop template with variables for product name, old price, new price and offer window, and Meta approves it once — usually within a few hours. After that the same template serves your entire catalog.
How does InfiQ know when a price changes?
Connect your store via webhook — Shopify, WooCommerce and custom carts all work through the REST API — or run a scheduled catalog sync. When a tracked SKU's price falls below a shopper's threshold, the alert fires within seconds of the change.
How do I avoid spamming shoppers whose wishlists change price often?
Set frequency caps per number — most brands cap at 2 price alerts a week — plus minimum-drop thresholds and quiet hours. Meta also applies its own per-user marketing limits, so disciplined sending protects your delivery rates too.
How do I measure whether alerts actually drive sales?
Every alert carries a tracked link, and purchase webhooks flow back into InfiQ so you see the full funnel from delivered to purchased. Run a holdout group — shoppers who qualify but don't get the alert — to measure true incremental lift rather than sales that would have happened anyway.
What if the price goes back up before the shopper buys?
Two clean options: honour the alerted price for the stated window with an auto-applied coupon code, or expire the CTA link when the offer ends. Either way, state the window in the message itself — shoppers convert faster and complaints stay near zero.
