## Good for

## Worth knowing

- Prices rise with monthly views; the free plan stops at 2,500 views and one site.

- Spin the wheel, countdown timers and full-screen overlays need a paid plan.
- The page's plan descriptions differ between the monthly and annual views, so check the toggle you buy on.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. Optinly builds popups for stores and sites, with a free plan at 2,500 views on one site and paid plans from $7.20 a month. The free plan has exit intent but not the spin-the-wheel, countdown timers or full-screen overlays. Prices rise with views, and extra sites cost $9 each.

- **Value for money: B.** $7.20 a month on yearly billing for 15,000 views is inside the cheapest quarter ($8.25) for popup tools. It is $9 on monthly billing, and each extra site beyond the plan's allowance is $9.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free forever with no card, but at 2,500 views a month on one site, with only 3 popup form types.
- **Features: C.** Popup types, 120-plus templates, targeting, email integrations and analytics. Spin the wheel, timers and overlays need a paid plan, and all email integrations and analytics start on Advanced.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You build campaigns in a web editor and connect your site and email tool.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web app that plugs into WordPress, Shopify, Magento, Webflow, Drupal and Joomla. No phone or desktop app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Optinly you could make: popups. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $86.40 a year.

- You could make: Popups: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: A tracking script and a database that counts every visit.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, WordPress, Shopify and Magento among them.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
