- Works for stores that want recent-purchase pop-ups and live counters
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if your traffic is over 1,000 visitors a month on Free
- Watch out: notifications carry ProveSource branding until you pay
- Watch out: at the visitor limit, notifications stop for new visitors until the period resets
- Not for you if you want popups or spin to win, as the Boost set is a separate product at $24 a month
- Skip it if you pass 500,000 visitors, as the page lists nothing above Gorilla at $183
Pick Wisepops if
- Fits if you run a busy Shopify store and judge campaigns by revenue, not sign-ups

Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if your site is small, as the only published plan is $299 a month for 500,000 pageviews
- Not for you if you want to see a price before a sales call and you're not on Shopify
- Tight if bots hit your site a lot, as their page loads count unless you block them
- Watch out: past the limit campaigns stop, unless Extra Pageviews are on at 1.5 times the rate, which Shopify billing lacks
- Skip it if you want a free plan, as there's none, and only Shopify stores get the 14-day trial
How we grade them

Worth knowing
ProveSource
- Free-plan notifications carry ProveSource branding; custom branding needs a paid plan.
- At the visitor limit the vendor stops showing notifications to new visitors until the period resets or you upgrade.
- The Boost widget set (popups, spin to win, bars, timers) is a separate product with its own plans: Free for 3 widgets, Pro at $24 per month.
- The largest plan listed is Gorilla at 500K monthly visitors; the pricing page shows nothing above it.
Wisepops
- The website publishes no prices and sends visitors to book a demo; the $299 plan is the one shown on the Shopify App Store.
- Every page load with its code counts as a pageview, whether or not a campaign shows, and bot traffic counts unless you block it.
- Past the limit, campaigns stop unless Extra Pageviews are on, at 1.5 times the base rate and at most double the plan; not on Shopify billing.
- There is no free plan; the entry price suits stores with a lot of traffic.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
