Your store can't sell if it's down
E-commerce monitoring with nothing to install: we watch your homepage, product pages, and checkout, and alert you by WhatsApp or SMS the second something breaks.
Why online stores choose Oh, snap!
Every minute of downtime costs sales
If your store goes down mid flash sale or at peak hours, you're losing real money. Know instantly, not from tomorrow's sales report.
Checkout pages break silently
Your homepage can load perfectly while your checkout is timing out. Monitor every critical page, not just the front door.
Downtime hurts your rankings
Google notices when your site keeps going unreachable. Protect the traffic you worked so hard to earn.
Alert your whole team
Send alerts to yourself, your developer, and your VA at the same time. The fix starts when the first person sees it.
Do the math: what does one hour of downtime cost you?
Say your store sells $10,000 a month. Sounds manageable until you divide it: that's about $14 an hour, every hour. Except sales don't spread out evenly. They pile into evenings, weekends, and promo days, so three hours down at your best time doesn't cost you the average. It costs a lot more.
And if you run ads on Google or Meta, they keep charging for every click that lands on an error page. Run your own numbers with our free calculator.
Works with your platform, nothing to install
Oh, snap! checks your store from the outside, visiting your public URLs exactly like a customer would. No plugin, no agent, no server access needed.
Shopify
Hosted platforms don't let you install anything on the server. Good news: you don't need to.
WooCommerce
Your WordPress store is only as reliable as its hosting. Know the moment your hosting lets you down.
BigCommerce
Even solid platforms have bad days. Find out from an alert, not from a customer.
Wix & Squarespace
Site builders handle the servers, but your domain, DNS, and pages are still yours to watch.
Magento & VTEX
Bigger stack, more moving parts. Keep an eye on home, search, and checkout at once.
Custom builds
Your own code on a VPS? All the more reason: nobody else is watching it for you.
If it has a URL, we can watch it. That's the whole requirement.
Monitor the pages where the sale actually happens
One monitor per URL. Start with the pages that make you money:
Your homepage: the front door everyone walks through
Your best-selling product pages: where the money lives
Cart and checkout: where a visit becomes a sale
Payment confirmation: the step nobody can afford to lose
Site search: how customers find what they came for
Login and account pages: returning customers land here first

Create your free account
No credit card. It takes about 30 seconds.
Add your store's critical URLs
Homepage, checkout, best sellers. Paste each URL and you're done. Nothing to install.
Connect your alerts
Email and SMS are free. WhatsApp, Slack, and Telegram come with Unlimited.
WhatsApp alerts, where you'll actually see them
An email at 2 a.m. wakes up nobody. A WhatsApp does. Oh, snap! pings you by WhatsApp, SMS, or email as soon as it confirms your store isn't responding, so you or your developer can fix it before more carts walk away.
And before we alert you, we double-check the failure. A one-second blip won't buzz your phone: no false alarms at midnight.
Turn uptime into trust
Buying from a store you don't know is a leap of faith. A public status page and a live "we're up" badge in your footer tell customers someone is watching this store around the clock.
E-commerce monitoring FAQ
Does it work with Shopify, WooCommerce, or a custom store?
Yes, with any platform. Oh, snap! monitors your store from the outside, visiting your public URLs like a customer would. There's no plugin or agent to install and no server access needed, so Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, Squarespace, and fully custom builds all work the same.
Can I monitor my checkout, not just my homepage?
Yes, and you should. Every URL you add is its own monitor: the cart, the checkout, your best-selling product. A homepage can load perfectly while the checkout is down, and that's the outage that hurts most.
How often is my store checked?
Every 5 minutes on the free plan. Every 30 seconds or 1 minute on Unlimited, your choice. For a store, finding out in seconds instead of hours is the difference between losing one cart and losing the whole evening.
How do the alerts reach me?
By email and SMS on the free plan (yes, SMS is included). Unlimited adds WhatsApp, Slack, and Telegram, so the alert lands where you actually look.
What about false alarms?
Before alerting you, Oh, snap! re-checks the failure. If your store answers on the second try, your phone stays quiet. Nobody should lose sleep over a one-second blip.
How much does it cost?
The free plan includes 5 monitors forever, no credit card. Unlimited is $6.99 a month: unlimited monitors, 30-second checks, WhatsApp alerts, and a public status page. One flat price, no per-feature surprises.
Do I need to be technical?
No. If you can copy and paste your store's URL, you can use Oh, snap!. There is nothing to install or configure on your server.
What do I do when an alert comes in?
Breathe. Then work out where the problem lives: your hosting, your domain, or your platform. Because the alert reaches you in minutes instead of via an angry customer, you'll usually catch it before the damage grows. Your uptime history keeps a record of how long it lasted.
