Popup data doesn't lie (and who doesn't love good data!):

Top digital marketers report that conversion rates have increased 2-5x after implementing smart pop-ups. One of Hello Bar's e-commerce sites went from a disappointing 0.8% conversion rate to 4.2% in just 3 weeks!

According to Sumo, the average conversion rate for popups across all industries is around 3.09%, with the top 10% of popups converting at an impressive 9.28% (Source: Sumo, 2023)

Targeted pop-ups can increase conversion rates by up to 40% compared job seekers database to generic pop-ups (Source: Omnisend Research, 2024). Hello Bar reports that its clients see an average 83% increase in conversion rates.
