Popup upsells with real triggers and real targeting
Five triggers, three display modes, and frequency capping — so the right offer appears at the right moment, not on every page.
A popup only works when it respects the shopper. UpsellEngine gives popups the controls that separate a helpful nudge from an annoyance: five triggers, three display styles, page targeting, and frequency capping so the same person is not shown the same offer over and over.
You choose the moment. Fire on add-to-cart to suggest a companion, on exit intent to save a leaving visitor, after a set time on page, at a scroll depth, or when the cart crosses a value threshold. You choose the form too — a centered modal for a strong offer, a corner toast for a gentle one, or a slim banner that never blocks the page.
The trigger and the goal should match. Exit intent suits a last-chance offer or a small incentive to complete the order; a cart-value trigger is how you unlock a free-shipping or bundle offer once a shopper is close to a threshold; time and scroll triggers reward engaged browsers rather than interrupting new arrivals. Page and collection targeting keeps each popup relevant to what the shopper is looking at, and frequency capping means a returning customer is not shown the same message on every visit — the fastest way to make a popup feel like spam.

Frequently asked questions
What triggers can I use for popups?
Five: add-to-cart, exit intent, time on page, scroll depth, and cart value. Match the trigger to the goal — for example exit intent for a last-chance offer, or cart value to unlock a free-shipping threshold.
Will shoppers keep seeing the same popup?
No. Frequency capping limits how often a popup repeats, and page or collection targeting keeps each one relevant to what the shopper is viewing.
What display styles are available?
Three: a centered modal for a strong offer, a corner toast for a gentle one, or a slim banner that never blocks the page.
Which plan includes popup upsells?
The UpsellEngine Growth plan and above. Popups work on any Shopify plan — no Shopify Plus required.
