Smart trigger uses an AI-powered model to trigger your popup a second time within a session for visitors who are identified as most likely to convert. It uses information about the user and high-intent signals to determine the best time to show the popup again to the user. Predictive analytics models allow the feature to selectively re-trigger popups based on user behavior, without spamming or overwhelming users.
On average, smart triggering instantly adds 10% – 30% more signups without requiring any changes to your popup design. Additionally, Smart Triggering empowers decision-making through its data-driven approach, resulting in better outcomes compared to manual triggers.
How to set it up
Enabling Smart Triggering takes just a few clicks:
1. Go to your popup editor for the campaign where you want to enable Smart Triggering.
2. On the right sidebar, click the “+ Trigger” button.
3. Select “Smart Trigger” from the menu.
4. Click “Publish” in the top right corner of the editor to push your changes live.
✅ That's it! Once published, Smart trigger will work automatically on your popup, showing it again for high-intent users while respecting your campaign’s targeting rules.
Recommended default setup
Most brands enable Smart Triggering on their primary page-load popup alongside a regular time delay trigger (e.g., 2 seconds on page load) to maximize first-touch signups while re-engaging qualified visitors during the same session.
Considerations and Best Practices
While Smart Triggering offers significant benefits, align it with your specific business goals and user behavior. Thorough testing and monitoring are crucial to ensuring it seamlessly integrates into your strategy and maximizes its potential.
A/B Testing Recommendations
To determine the effectiveness of Smart Triggering, set up A/B experiments:
Design the Experiment: Divide your audience into two groups—one using manual triggers and the other using Smart Triggering.
Measure Key Metrics: Evaluate metrics like conversion rates and user engagement across groups.
Analyze the Results: Make decisions based on data to confirm Smart Triggering’s efficiency.
