Switching from Wisepops to Popupsmart

We move your campaigns for you

  • Free campaign migration: our team rebuilds your Wisepops popups in Popupsmart.
  • 2 hours of consultancy on your campaigns, free: a $300 value.
Book your free migration

What carries over

  • Your email list and CRM stay where they are: Popupsmart sends each lead to Klaviyo, Mailchimp, HubSpot and its other integrations on every plan.
  • On Shopify, discount codes stay in Shopify: Popupsmart can hand each visitor a unique code, show a product feed in the popup and target by what's in the cart.

What you rebuild

  • Popups don't carry over between tools, so each campaign is rebuilt: our team does it for free, or you rebuild it yourself from a template or with the Popupsmart AI agent.
  • Targeting rules, schedules and frequency caps are set again; exit intent and the other display rules are on every plan, the free one included.

What else you need

  • Web push, an onsite feed and embeds have no Popupsmart equivalent; if you use them, keep a tool for them.
  • There's no strategist: you build the campaigns, and chat support on paid plans answers within 15 minutes during working hours (GMT+03:00).

Also considered, not yet listed

  • Justuno: Its Done-For-You plan puts its experts on your retention strategy, from $299 a month for 20,000 visitors. Not listed: we haven't read every one of its reviews yet, so there's no reading to set beside the others.
  • Wisepops' own Shopify plan: On Shopify, $299 a month buys its self-serve plan for up to 500,000 pageviews, with every feature and no demo first.
  • Klaviyo forms and Shopify Forms: Signup forms built into an email platform and into Shopify. They're free with those platforms but aren't popup builders, so we haven't compared them here.

How we made this list

We make Popupsmart, one of the tools on this list, and list it first. The picks and the entries say where each other tool fits better, and where Wisepops itself is the better choice.

Prices and free plans come from each vendor's own pricing page, read on the dates shown beside each tool; Wisepops' on 26 Sep 2026. Wisepops prices its site plans after a demo, so its entry gives its Shopify App Store plan, and where its own pages disagree, both figures are named. Where a vendor bills visitors or impressions rather than pageviews, the table says so and converts nothing. Popupsmart's figures come from our pricing page.

Reviews: an AI assistant read every G2 review of each product and sorted what the reviewers praise and criticise into themes; the counts are reviews per theme, out of all the reviews read. No person has checked every tag. Sleeknote has too few G2 reviews to read alone, so we also read its Capterra and Trustpilot reviews. Alia has no G2 page, so its entry gives its Shopify App Store rating and no theme counts. Review sites mix organic reviews with ones the vendor invited; each product's reviews say which.

The screenshots are ours, of each vendor's home page while logged out, and each caption gives the day it was taken.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Wisepops alternative?
The best Wisepops alternative depends on why you're leaving. If your team has no developer and wants to run its own campaigns, built by hand or by the Popupsmart AI agent, starting free, Popupsmart. For a self-serve store tool with product recommendations, OptiMonk. For every feature on every plan and a free start, Claspo. For a Shopify store that wants AI or a team to run its popups, Alia. For ecommerce teams with many websites, Sleeknote. For forms inside your pages and agency sub-accounts, OptinMonster. For popups and email from one company, Poptin. For popups, email and SMS in one app, Privy.
Is there a free alternative to Wisepops?
Wisepops has no free plan, only a 14-day trial. OptiMonk (10,000 pageviews a month), Popupsmart (5,000 pageviews), Claspo (3,000 pageviews) and Poptin (1,000 visitors) start free. Alia, Sleeknote and Privy offer a trial, and OptinMonster a 14-day money-back guarantee.
Is Wisepops a good fit for small businesses?
Wisepops is priced for stores that want the work done. Its only public price is $299 a month for up to 500,000 pageviews, on the Shopify App Store; off Shopify it quotes after a demo. Its pricing page says site plans start at €599 a month for up to a million pageviews, and its home page says the managed plan starts at $499. A small site that builds its own campaigns pays less with a self-serve tool: Popupsmart starts free and costs $39 / mo for 50,000 pageviews.
Does Wisepops work with Shopify?
Yes, Wisepops works with Shopify. It sells a self-serve plan on the Shopify App Store, $299 a month for up to 500,000 pageviews, and on Shopify it adds AI product recommendations and AI cart recovery. Popupsmart, Alia, Sleeknote, Poptin and Privy also sell through Shopify apps, and Alia runs on Shopify only.
Can I move my Wisepops popups to another tool?
Wisepops popups don't carry over to any of these tools, so each campaign is rebuilt. If you move to Popupsmart, our team rebuilds your Wisepops campaigns for free and adds 2 hours of consultancy on them (a $300 value). With the other tools you rebuild each one yourself, from a template, or on Alia's Fully Managed plan its team builds them. Your email list stays in your email platform, so connecting the new tool to it keeps new leads going to the same place.
Why do people look for Wisepops alternatives?
In our reading of every Wisepops review on G2, the complaints are design options and templates, missing features, integration gaps, the price as traffic grows with plans billed by pageviews, and reporting detail. Its reviewers praise its ease of use above everything else, then how quickly campaigns go live without developers. Nearly all of those reviews were written between 2024 and 2026.
