Create Web popup campaigns

Web popup campaigns let you place the Web popup content you’ve created onto your website, and control exactly when it appears and who sees it.

Start a new campaign

1. Go to Campaigns → Web popups.
2. Click Create campaign.

Select Web popup content

Pick the Web popup this campaign will show. Select an existing item in the list, or click Create new to open the editor (see Web popup content). Return to this tab when your content is ready and select it from the list.

Click Next when the right content is selected.

Define audience

Select who should see the popup.

• All users: show the popup to everyone without filters.

• Target audience: show the popup only to users who match a segment or custom conditions. Two sub-options appear:
  • Use existing segment: pick a saved segment from the list. To create one without leaving the wizard, click Create segment.
  • Use custom conditions: build the audience inline by adding filters by Tag, Event, Segment, or User ID.

When you’re done, click Next.

Configure display settings

Set up when, how often, and where to show this Web popup.

Display delay

Choose when the Web popup may first appear after the page loads.

• Immediately
• After 3 seconds
• After 5 seconds
• After 10 seconds

Note

The delay is measured from the moment the Pushwoosh SDK initializes on the page, not from when the page starts loading. The actual time before the Web popup appears may be slightly longer than the value you set. For example, if the SDK takes 2 seconds to load and you set a 5-second delay, the Web popup will appear 7 seconds after the page starts loading.

Frequency

Under FREQUENCY, choose how often a visitor can see this Web popup:

• Once per visitor: the visitor sees the popup at most once in that browser, even in a new tab.

Note

Pushwoosh can recognize the same visitor only while the browser keeps the Web SDK data. If the visitor clears browser data, uses another browser, or opens the site on another device, Pushwoosh treats them as a new device, so the Web popup can appear again.

• Once per session: the visitor sees the popup once per browsing session. If they close a tab and return before the session ends, the popup does not appear again.
• Every visit: the popup appears each time the visitor loads a matching page.

Device

Controls which environment the Web popup appears on.

Select:

• All devices
• Desktop
• Mobile.

Show on pages

Controls which URLs trigger the Web popup.

• All pages: show the popup on every page of the site.
• Specified pages: enter each path as it appears after your domain, for example /pricing or /blog/intro. Each path must be an exact match. Click + Add page to add more rows, or × to remove one.

Click Next to continue.

Review the campaign

The Review screen summarizes:

• Content: which Web popup banner or template is attached.
• Audience: All users, or Target audience with the selected segment name or custom conditions.
• Display settings: device, the pages the Web popup shows on, delay, and frequency.

Use CHANGE OPTIONS on any block to jump back and edit that part.

The Preview area shows how the Web popup looks on a sample viewport. Use EDIT CONTENT if you need to adjust the underlying content asset.

When everything looks right, click Complete setup.

Then pick an option from the menu:

• Launch campaign activates the Web popup.
• Save as draft saves the campaign without activating it. When you are ready to go live, go to Campaigns → Web popups, find the draft in the table, and click Activate on its row. Use Edit campaign in the row actions menu first if you still need to change settings.
