Popup Builder

Create Email Capture Popups

Capture more leads and grow your email list by using the Email Capture template. You can easily adjust your layout, colors, text and button. You can also create your own email autoresponder that will get sent to new sign ups. Find this under Controls > Autoresponder Email.

Keep Visitors on Your Site

A great way of keeping visitors on your site is by giving them a special offer just as they start to leave. This is typically called an exit intent popup. To create your exit intent popup, first select your preferred template in the Template tab, then in the Controls tab, go to Popup Display Options and select As Visitors Start to Leave.

Create a Spin to Win Promotion

Spin to Win is an excellent way to give your visitors a chance to win discounts on products in your online store! They enter their email address, spin the wheel and are in with the chance of winning a discount. It will help you get more sales, all while collecting new contact information from customers so you can grow your mailing list.

Get more followers, boost conversions, or post a survey

You can embed any POWR plugin inside your Popup to customize your messaging and call-to-actions even more. Some popular use cases are:

• Use Social Media Icons to grow your social following.
• Embed a Countdown Timer to announce the beginning or end of a special promo sale.
• Add a Form Builder to create a feedback survey to display when a customer is leaving your site.

Click Add Element and select one of the recommended plugins, or click More POWR Plugins to see additional options. 

Note: You will need to separately edit your embedded plugin by clicking the Edit button above the inserted plugin. 

How can I add a coupon code to a POWR popup?

You can add a Coupon element to your popup in your POWR Editor > Content > Add Element. However, the coupon will be added to the popup itself, not its autoresponder email.

Does POWR Popup work on all websites?

Unfortunately, no. Unlike other POWR plugins, there are certain platforms and site-builders that will not support POWR Popup. These include Facebook, GoDaddy, Google Sites, iBuildApp, Moonfruit, Webs.com, and any site where elements are added via iFrame.

How to set the email as a required element?

You will need to disable the “Close button” or toggle off the “Close when a visitor clicks away from your popup” in order to customers to fill in the email address for sure:

POWR Popup is set by default to open one second after someone lands on a page. If you use an upgraded version of POWR Popup you have more options of when to trigger the popup. You can set this in the Controls menu > Popup Display options. The options are:

• Immediately – your popup appears as soon as your site loads.
• As visitors start to leave – a popup will appear when the visitor moves to leave the page (mouse is focused on the address bar).
  • *Please be advised, that this function is not working on mobile because the mobile view doesn’t have a cursor itself which should trigger a pop-up to appear. 
• After a delay – popup will appear after a specified time delay. Use the slider to set your delay.
• After scrolling – Appears after a visitor scrolls a percentage of the page.
• Custom trigger – popup will appear when a visitor clicks something on your page. To set this up, you must add the plugin to the page, then wrap a piece of text, button, or image in a special CSS class, like this…

<span class=”trigger-popup”>your text, button, or image here</span>

Zapier lets you connect POWR Popup to 2,000+ other web services. Automated connections called Zaps, set up in minutes with no coding, can automate your day-to-day tasks and build workflows between apps that otherwise wouldn’t be possible.

Each Zap has one app as the **Trigger**, where your information comes from and which causes one or more **Actions** in other apps, where your data gets sent automatically.
