Targeting

Overview

Popup targeting allows you to display your campaigns to the right audience, on the right pages, at the right time. Use targeting to increase relevance and conversion rates while respecting user preferences. Popup targeting works similarly to announcement bar targeting with some popup-specific considerations.

Page Targeting

Control which pages trigger your popup campaigns throughout your website.

Device Targeting

Show your popup campaign only on specific device types: desktop, tablet, or mobile.

Device Categories

Device Targeting Strategies

3. Uncheck any devices to exclude them
4. Preview how your popup appears on different screen sizes

Mobile Popup Best Practices

• Size Responsively: Ensure popup width adapts to mobile screens
• Large Touch Targets: Buttons should be at least 40x40px for mobile users
• Readable Text: Use larger font sizes on mobile (min 14px)
• Test Orientation: Test on both portrait and landscape modes
• Avoid Overlap: Ensure popup doesn't cover critical mobile UI elements

User Targeting

Display your popup campaign to specific user segments: all visitors, logged-in users, or guest visitors.
