Collecting contact information from customers is the first step toward expanding your reach and enhancing the performance of your EDM campaigns. SmartPush provides specific pop-up templates to encourage customers to subscribe to or register with your store, helping you achieve your marketing goals. This article walks you through how to configure these pop-ups effectively.

Understanding the Flow of Pop-Ups for Subscription and Registration

These pop-ups usually appear when new or guest customers just enter your store, encouraging them to subscribe to your newsletters or register with your store by leaving contact information. The common approach is to offer discounts or coupons as incentives for completing the process.

For subscription pop-ups, customers would leave their contact information directly in the pop-up. They then collect coupon(s) in the next step.
For registration pop-ups, customers will be redirected to the sign-up page if they opt in to register. Once they complete the registration, the pop-up reappears and the coupon(s) are offered.

Enabling Pop-Ups for Subscription and Registration

SmartPush offers a rich library of pop-up templates for subscription and registration that are optimized for these applications. To activate one, follow the general steps below:

In SmartPush, go to Popups & Forms > Template Library.
In the left column of filters, select Welcome discount, Subscribe pop-up window or To register under Theme.
- SmartPush has enabled the integration with Shopper App, the mobile application builder developed by SHOPLINE. Certain pop-up templates for subscription and registration support pop-up display on mobile apps. To use these templates, select the APP (Available for Shopper App) filter.

Configuring Pop-ups for Subscription

Subscription templates come with preset configurations but can be customized as needed. Learn in this section about the specific settings for subscription pop-ups.

Note: We take a template that supports Shopper App as an example below, but the descriptions apply to all templates.

Customize each step of the pop-up journey by clicking on it at the top of the editor’s middle pane.
- The Teaser step is unavailable if Shopper App is enabled.
In the Exhibit tab:
- Display on: Select the devices where the pop-up appears. Most templates support desktop and mobile browser display.
  - If the template supports Shopper App, you’ll see it as a third option.
- Form type: Choose the placement of the pop-up on the page. Modal pop-ups are fixed on the page, while Corner pop-ups generally appear in the four corners of a web page and don’t require customer’s interaction.
  - If the Shopper App platform is enabled, Corner popup becomes unavailable, even if you also enable Desktop and/or Mobile platforms.
In the Push tab:
- Push time: Subscription pop-ups appear only when customers enter specified pages.
- Show page: Select the page(s) where the pop-up appears. Options depend on which platform(s) you selected for Display on.
  - If you exclude Shopper App, you are able to select from several pages of your store and webpages outside of your store.
  - If your platforms include Shopper App, you are able to select only the homepage of your store and other webpages. However, these webpages won’t take effect on the app.
  - If you only enable Shopper App, you can only display the pop-up on your store’s homepage.

- Display rules: Set the timing for the pop-up to appear, based on dwell time, scroll depth, or customer’s exit intention.
  - Options also depend on which platform(s) you selected for Display on. If your platforms include Shopper App, these options are available for configuration but will not take effect on the app. If Shopper App is your only platform, none of these options are available.
- Stop-push condition: To avoid disturbing customer experience, choose the condition under which pop-ups stop appearing (customer action or count of appearances).
In the Add blocks tab: On the left pane, available components are shown. Drag and drop needed components to your desired position on the pop-up. Then customize the components on the right pane.
- The Discount component will be available for the completion step to you. Choose which discount details to display. You can choose discounts from your store, or create new ones by switching to Add new discount, where you can specify the type, effective time, and condition of the discount. Up to 10 discounts can be added.
