How do I add a popup to Shopify?

Install a popup app from the Shopify App Store, pick a template, choose when the popup appears (on load, after a delay or on exit intent), set the pages and devices, and publish it. Claspo's guide explains how to add a popup to Shopify step by step.

How do I create a discount popup on Shopify?

A discount popup trades a code for an email address or phone number. Create the discount in Shopify, build the popup in your app, show the code after sign-up and target first-time visitors. Claspo's page on the Shopify discount popup shows how to set one up.

What to check before you install a popup app

  • Availability. Open the listing before you commit. Apps get withdrawn: Privy, once a popular choice, was not available on the Shopify App Store when we checked on October 28, 2026.

  • Branding. Some free plans show the app's logo on your popups. Claspo's free plan does.

  • Limits. Check what counts toward your plan (pageviews, visitors, impressions, contacts or subscribers) and what happens when you pass it.

  • Mobile. Test every popup on a phone, since most shoppers browse on one.

  • Consent. Check the sign-up wording for email and SMS in the countries where you sell.

How we compared these apps

We took ratings, review counts, free plans and prices from each app's Shopify App Store listing on October 28, 2026. Claspo is shown first because it is an Essential Apps partner, and the other apps are sorted by review count. We left out apps that are no longer listed and apps with no reviews. Essential Apps does not publish a popup app. Prices and ratings change, so check the listing before you install.
