Shopify's own forms app is free and does more of this than its reputation suggests. It has a popup placement distinct from an inline one, it can trigger after a chosen number of page views with a delay, it can fire when somebody moves to leave the page on desktop, and it can be limited by device and by page type. Exit intent, the feature most associated with paid popup apps, is already there and costs nothing.

What it does not have is targeting by where the visitor is, which is a real gap and the clearest thing the paid tools add, alongside testing one design against another, deeper segmentation and richer editors. Worth knowing too that whatever you install arrives as a theme embed and will not appear until somebody switches it on in the theme editor, because an app cannot enable itself.

What to look for in a Poptin app

Try the free one for a fortnight first: It costs nothing, it captures addresses, and it will tell you your actual signup rate. That number is what makes the paid comparison meaningful, and without it you are choosing between feature lists rather than deciding whether a better popup would earn anything.
Be honest about what you will test: Testing two variants is a headline feature and it needs traffic and someone to read the result. If nobody is going to look at it in six weeks, you are paying for a capability you will not use, and a simpler tool will serve you better.
Decide what the popup costs you: Every interruption trades some goodwill for an address, and the aggressive settings collect more of both. Look at what the app lets you tune, how easily a visitor dismisses it for good, and whether it respects that on the next visit, since that setting affects more people than the ones who sign up.

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
