Why stores switch

Why Shopify stores switch from OptiMonk

A popup only pays off when the email that follows it lands. Emailwish handles both, so nothing gets lost between apps.

Welcome flow

Every signup gets a welcome.

New subscribers go straight into a form signup series written in your brand's voice. Offer a discount in the popup and the code arrives in the welcome email.

One app

Five tools, one bill.

Popups, email marketing, reviews, live chat and wishlists come with every plan, including Free. No integrations to set up, no signups stuck between apps.

One profile

Popups that know the shopper.

Popup signups, chats, reviews and wishlist saves share one customer profile, so the emails that follow know what each shopper did on your store.

Built in

From popup to first order

Signups sync straight into your lists and flows. The welcome series goes out, the abandoned cart flow catches shoppers who leave, and a review request follows their first delivery.

  • Abandoned cart flow for shoppers who don't check out
