Knowband Launches VideoMate for PrestaShop, OpenCart, and WooCommerce - A Game-Changer for eCommerce Stores

In today's digital age, first impressions are everything. While static images offer a glimpse, videos bring products to life. Shoppers expect more than just visuals; they want clarity, connection, and confidence. That's why Knowband has introduced a powerful new module: VideoMate, now available for PrestaShop, OpenCart, and WooCommerce platforms.

This Prestashop video module empowers online sellers to add high-quality video content to their Product pages, Home pages, and Category pages, creating a more dynamic, interactive, and persuasive shopping experience. Additionally, in the Prestashop Video Manager Addon, we can also add Best Sellers and New Arrivals products.

What is VideoMate?

VideoMate is a user-friendly plugin designed to help eCommerce store owners add one or multiple videos to Product pages, Home pages, and Category pages effortlessly. It supports popular video platforms like YouTube and Instagram Reels, and also allows you to upload self-hosted videos like Product reviews and product description videos.
Whether you want to showcase a product demonstration, an unboxing video, or customer testimonials, Product Video Manager enables it all with ease.

Why Video Content Matters in eCommerce

Now, let's be honest-most users don't read, they watch. In fact, product videos often play a crucial role in driving purchasing decisions. That's because:
Videos provide a clearer understanding of the product

They build trust by showing real use cases

It help reduce doubts and hesitations

Moreover, it led to fewer returns and more satisfied customers

They improve engagement rates and increase the time spent on the page

Therefore, adding videos doesn't just improve aesthetics-it boosts performance.

Key Benefits of Video Manager for eCommerce Businesses

Now, let's explore how VideoMate enhances your online store.
1. Significantly Increases Conversions
Videos provide a stronger emotional connection. They help buyers visualize how the product will fit into their lives. As a result, conversion rates increase because customers feel more confident.

2. Minimizes Product Returns
With more clarity comes fewer surprises. Videos show size, texture, features, and functionality in real-life situations. Consequently, customers make more informed purchases, leading to fewer returns and better feedback.

3. Creates a Richer Product Experience
Furthermore, instead of relying only on images and descriptions, you can now turn product pages into interactive storytelling videos with the OpenCart Video Manager Extension. Moreover, this not only improves the shopping experience but also builds stronger brand credibility.

Detailed Features of the VideoMate Module

What truly sets VideoMate apart is its comprehensive feature set. Let's break it down.

1. Multiple Video Support per Product
Unlike limited plugins, VideoMate lets you add multiple videos to a single product. You can include a demo, a tutorial, a review, and even behind-the-scenes footage. Moreover, this layered approach helps customers view the product from every angle.

2. YouTube, Instagram reels, and Product Review Videos Integration
Moreover, flexibility is key. Whether your videos are hosted on YouTube, Instagram Reels, or Product Reviews, Prestashop VideoMate Addon supports all formats. Moreover, this ensures you don't need to change your existing video strategy. Moreover, you can upload directly from the file.

3. Video Previews
With the PrestaShop VideoMate Addon, you can check video previews right on the backend. This feature lets you display a preview screen of the video before it plays. As a result, we can view the video before placing it on Product pages, Home pages, and Category pages. Moreover, we can choose the correct video accordingly.

4. Video Carousel Display
For stores with multiple product videos, the Knowband Video Carousel module view is incredibly helpful. It allows users to scroll through a set of videos without leaving the page. Moreover, this feature is ideal for fashion, electronics, beauty, and home decor products, where showcasing different styles, features, or user experiences is essential.

5. Floating Popup Video Player
Here's a standout feature. With floating popup mode, the video continues playing in a small window as users scroll. This means your key message or demo stays visible while customers explore more product details. Consequently, user attention remains high, and engagement improves.
This is particularly useful for storytelling, cross-selling, or introducing new collections while keeping customers visually engaged.

6. Flexible Video Placement Options
With VideoMate, you are not restricted to one format. You can place videos:
Left or right on the product image

Inside the Category

Additionally, on the Home Page

As a pop-up that opens on click or hover

As a result, you can align video placements with your store layout and customer journey.

7. Easy-to-Use Admin Panel
Managing your videos is straightforward. The intuitive backend interface allows you to add, organize, preview, and update video content effortlessly. Even if you have no technical background, you'll find the controls simple to understand.

8. Fully Responsive Across Devices
Another major advantage-VideoMate is completely mobile-friendly. Whether your customers are browsing from a desktop, tablet, or smartphone, the videos load perfectly and adapt to every screen size.

9. Advanced Playback Settings
You have full control over how the video behaves. Options like:
Autoplay

Loop

Mute

Play from a specific timestamp

These settings let you tailor the user experience and ensure videos work exactly as you intend.

Real-World Use Cases
To better understand how VideoMate fits into different store types, consider these examples:
Fashion stores can showcase outfit try-ons, style guides, and influencer reviews.

Tech and electronics sellers can use tutorials and unboxing videos to explain product features.

Furniture and home brands can display installation guides or lifestyle videos to inspire customers.

Beauty retailers can show real results, makeup tutorials, or skincare routines in a floating popup while customers read more about ingredients.

Moreover, the possibilities are truly endless. And with the OpenCart video plugin, they're also easy to implement.
