Use cases

One popup builder for every goal

Whatever you would use a popup maker or popup creator for, start from what you want the popup to do. The agent picks the format, writes the offer and sets when it shows. Here are the six goals stores use it for most.

Popup designed for MeUndies

Email popups

Turn first-time visitors into subscribers with a welcome offer. A discount, free shipping or early access works best for most stores, and the agent writes the copy around the one you choose.

The agent sets: a delay or scroll trigger, new visitors only, one view per visitor.

Exit-intent popups

Catch visitors as they move to leave and give them one more reason to stay: a reminder of their cart, a small discount or a helpful link.

The agent sets: exit intent on desktop, a scroll-up or inactivity trigger on mobile.

Gamification

A lucky wheel or a scratch card makes signing up feel like a game. You set the prizes and their odds; the agent designs the wheel or card in your brand.

The agent sets: the prizes on the wheel or card, a coupon code per prize, non-subscribers only.

Quiz popups

Ask a few questions and recommend the right product. Quizzes help shoppers who don't know where to start, and every answer tells you something about them.

The agent sets: the questions and answers, a product recommendation for each result.

Seasonal offers

Announce a Black Friday sale, a holiday offer or a product launch in a popup built for that moment, then switch it off when the offer ends.

The agent sets: a start and end date, all visitors or a chosen segment.

Upsell popups

Suggest a bundle, an add-on or a better option while the shopper is already buying, and raise the average order value without a discount on everything.

The agent sets: cart or product-page targeting, with product recommendations from your store.

How it works

How this popup builder works

Three steps from a sentence to a running campaign. You stay in control at each one.

Step 1

Describe it

Enter your store's domain and tell the agent what the popup should do, in your own words. Or pick an example from the popup library and it's rebuilt for your store.

Step 2

Check the targeting

The agent proposes when the popup shows, to whom and how often. Change any rule, connect your email or SMS tool and add your coupon code.

Switch it on and test

Switch the popup on and follow its results. When you want to improve it, ask for an A/B test in plain words, and the variants are set up for you.

No templates

Why a popup designed from scratch converts better than a template

Shoppers have seen the same popup templates on hundreds of stores. A popup that looks borrowed reads as an interruption and gets closed. One that looks like part of your site reads as part of the shopping experience.

That's why the agent starts from your store, not from a template: that is what makes it an agentic popup builder. It reads your colors, fonts, product photos and tone of voice, then designs the popup for that one brand. The mobile version is designed separately, so it isn't a squeezed copy of the desktop one.

It also means no blank canvas and no afternoon of tweaking. If something isn't right, tell the agent what to change, or adjust any detail yourself in the editor.

FAQ

Popup builder FAQ

Is this popup builder free?

Yes. The Free plan doesn't expire and needs no credit card. It includes every feature for up to 10,000 pageviews a month on one domain. Paid plans start at $19/month, billed yearly (see pricing), and there is no OptiMonk branding on your popups on any plan.

Are these popups templates?

No. The agent designs each popup for your store, from your colors, fonts, products and tone. The examples in the popup library were designed the same way for other brands. When you start from one, it's rebuilt for yours.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe the popup in plain words. The only technical step is installing OptiMonk once: the app on Shopify, the plugin on WordPress, or one line of code on other sites.

What types of popups can I build?

Standard popups, fullscreen popups, lucky wheels and scratch cards, each with a separate mobile version. Use them for email signups, exit intent, quizzes, seasonal offers and upsells.

Can I edit what the agent builds?

Yes. Ask the agent for changes in plain words, such as a different headline or a bigger discount, or change any detail yourself in the editor.

What is the difference between a popup builder and a popup maker?

None in practice: popup builder, popup maker and popup creator all mean software for creating website popups. What differs between tools is how much of the work you do. With a self-service tool you design and set up each popup; with OptiMonk the agent does that for you.

Which popup should I start with?

For most stores, a welcome popup that offers new visitors a small discount or free shipping for their email. It grows your list from the first day and pays for itself with the first orders. Once it runs, add an exit-intent popup for visitors who are about to leave, then test a lucky wheel or a quiz against your welcome offer.

Does it work with Klaviyo and other email tools?

Yes. Subscribers can go straight to Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Omnisend, Attentive, HubSpot and more than 50 other tools, with the fields and tags you choose. You connect the tool once, and every new popup can use it.

Can I build popups from ChatGPT or Claude?

Yes. Connect OptiMonk's MCP server, and you can create, edit and publish popups from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. It works on every plan, including Free.

Will popups hurt my SEO?

Not if they're timed well. Search engines object to popups that cover the page as soon as a mobile visitor arrives from search. Show yours after a delay, on scroll or on exit intent, and keep the close button easy to reach.

Will popups slow down my site?

No. OptiMonk loads asynchronously, next to your page instead of in front of it, and serves popups through a CDN, so your page speed stays the same.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancelling moves you to the Free plan and keeps your popups and data. Refunds are available within 14 days of your first payment.
