Ira 3.0

Popup

You can show customers a promotional popup notification if it looks like they might leave your store.

Ira looks for the customer's "exit intent" by detecting if your store is the focused window in their web browser. So, if the customer opened a new browser tab, or a mouse accelerates to the edge of the screen, Ira would flag this behavior as exit intent. Unlike landing popups, exit intent popups are designed not to interrupt the user's experience.

The popup feature encourages customers to sign up for your email newsletter.

Newsletter subscribers are added to your "accepts marketing" Shopify Customers list. You can learn more about how to manage Shopify customer emails from their Email subscriber list management and Using Shopify Email for email marketing article.

Note that the Newsletter home page section and Footer features also include a newsletter signup block, so you might want to check those out, too.
