How to Set Up After X Seconds Trigger

Set the Timing

Set the timing (as seconds) as you like. This value determines how many seconds the popup will be triggered. We recommend 5-10 seconds.

Important

Optionally, for more precise targeting, make sure your popup triggers don't conflict with each other. For example, if you set your exit-intent trigger to work independently from any other targeting, your popup will appear on exit-intent without waiting After X Seconds.
