Wishlists & Saved Items Engine

The Wishlists & Saved Items System on BDX.market empowers buyers to bookmark, track, and organize digital offers, game hubs, and seller listings. Integrated into the marketplace interface, the wishlist feature acts as a personalized discovery portal for buyers and an automated price-drop notification pipeline across Bangladesh.

Key Features​

  1. 1-Tap Quick Saving: Every product card and seller offer incorporates a floating heart icon trigger. Clicking the heart toggles saved status instantly.
  2. Saved Account Sync: Unauthenticated guest users can save offers temporarily. Logging in merges saved items into your account history automatically.
  3. Dedicated Wishlist View: A centralized page (bdx.market/wishlist) allows buyers to sort saved items by price, category, stock status, or discount magnitude.

2. Wishlist Storage & Price Tracking​

Saved items are tracked alongside the price at the moment of bookmarking:

  • Initial Price Recording: Records the item price when added to calculate price drops accurately.
  • Unique Save Tracking: Ensures each item is bookmarked once per user account.

3. Automated Price Drop & Back-in-Stock Notifications​

The wishlist system sends alerts to buyers when bookmarked items change price or restock:

  • Price Drop Threshold: Sends a notification when a seller lowers an offer price by 5% or more.
  • Restock Alert: Sends a notification when an out-of-stock item receives new inventory.

4. Popularity Badges & Demand Insights​

Wishlist data provides useful market signals across the marketplace:

  • Popular Wishlist Badges: Offers with high bookmark counts display a "Popular Wishlist" tag on catalog hubs.
  • Seller Demand Metrics: Sellers can view aggregate bookmark metrics on their dashboard to gauge demand and adjust stock levels accordingly.
