The best exit-intent pop-up software of 2026

Most tools here decide who sees an exit offer by page, device or behavior. Convertful can also read the tags, lists and custom field values in your email platform and show a different exit offer to each group. A subscriber who already has your free guide can see a discount instead of a second sign-up form, and a customer tagged as a buyer can see an upsell. Convertful lists this account-based targeting for ActiveCampaign, AWeber, Kit, Drip, GetResponse, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Klaviyo and Platformly, among others.

Exit intent is one of ten display rules, and it works across every widget type: pop-ups, scroll boxes, floating bars, full-screen welcome mats, inline forms and floating buttons. For exit offers with a deadline, Convertful's evergreen countdown timers give each visitor a personal deadline that starts when they first see it. Spin-to-win and scratch-card games swap an email address for a coupon.

The Solo plan costs $9 a month, or $84 a year, for 10,000 pageviews on one site, but it shows Convertful branding and leaves out CRM sync and A/B tests. Starter, at $29 a month or $17 a month billed yearly, removes the branding and adds the CRM sync that makes the tag targeting work, along with A/B tests and AI text and image generation. Every plan starts with a 14-day trial.

Convertful describes exit intent in terms of the cursor moving toward the address bar and does not say how it detects a visitor leaving on a phone.

OptiMonk is the easiest tool to try exit intent on without paying, because its free plan has no time limit and covers 10,000 pageviews a month on one domain. The pricing page says there are no feature gates between plans, so targeting, A/B testing, analytics and integrations come with the free account, and OptiMonk adds no branding to pop-ups on any plan.

On a desktop, the pop-up fires as the cursor heads for the tab bar. On a phone, which has no cursor, OptiMonk watches for a fast scroll back up or a tap on the back button. You can also cap how many times one visitor sees the offer, which keeps a returning reader from meeting the same discount on every visit.

The starting formats include an exit-intent discount and a spin-to-win wheel, and the library holds more than 1,000 ready-made pop-ups. If you would rather describe the offer in a sentence, OptiMonk's AI agent designs and writes the pop-up and puts it live on your store.

Paid plans only add traffic and domains. Essential costs $19 a month billed yearly for 20,000 pageviews and two domains, and Growth costs $69 a month billed yearly for 100,000 pageviews. Month-to-month prices run higher, starting at $29.

OptinMonster sells exit intent under its registered Exit-Intent name, and the trigger covers phones as well as desktops: on a phone, it shows the campaign when the visitor scrolls up. The trigger list also includes an InactivitySensor, timed and scheduled display, and JavaScript targeting.

The catch is the plan. Exit intent first appears on Pro, which costs $37 a month billed yearly in the first year ($444) for three sites and 25,000 impressions. Basic and Plus, at $9 and $27 a month, leave it out, and so does the free account, which has Basic's features and 500 impression credits. Renewal prices are much higher than the first year: Pro renews at $870 a year, nearly double what you pay up front.

What you get for that is the widest template choice on this list, with more than 700 templates and 12 campaign types, including coupon wheels, content lockers and slide-ins. OptinMonster has a WordPress plugin and also works on Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Squarespace, Wix and any HTML site, with more than 50 integrations. A 14-day money-back guarantee covers the first purchase.

Privy suits an online store that wants the exit offer and the follow-up email in the same account. Its Pop-ups & Displays plan lists exit-intent pop-ups as a feature, and the contacts you collect sync to Shopify, BigCommerce or Wix. Privy also connects to Squarespace, Weebly and WooCommerce.

A typical setup shows a discount to a shopper about to leave and collects their email, so you can send the code and a reminder from the same account. Privy's email editor is built for stores, so you can drop products and discount codes into a message, and SMS sits in the same account.

If you only want pop-ups, the Pop-ups & Displays plan costs $24 a month for up to 10,000 pageviews, $84 for up to 50,000 and $168 for up to 100,000. That is a higher price per pageview than OptiMonk or Getsitecontrol, so Privy makes most sense when you will also use its email. Email plans start at $30 a month for up to 1,500 mailable contacts, with 250 SMS credits included.

You can try it for 15 days without a credit card. Privy does not describe how its exit intent detects a visitor leaving on a phone.

Getsitecontrol prices by widget views, and its top plan has no cap, which makes it the cheapest way on this list to run an exit pop-up on a high-traffic site. Pro Max costs $29 a month per site for unlimited views. Pro costs $19 a month for 100,000 views.

You need one of those two plans for exit intent. Getsitecontrol calls the trigger "When the user is leaving the website" and keeps it for Pro. On a desktop, it watches for the mouse moving toward the top edge of the browser. On a phone, a quick upward flick toward the address bar counts as an exit and shows the widget. The free plan covers 10,000 widget views a month but only with the other triggers.

Getsitecontrol also sends email. It has broadcasts and automations, including a checkout abandonment trigger, so a small store could run the exit offer and the reminder email from one account. Sending is billed separately, at $1.60 per 1,000 emails on Pro and $1.40 on Pro Max. If you already use Klaviyo, Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, MailerLite or Omnisend, Getsitecontrol connects to them, and it has a Shopify app.

Prices are per site, so running three sites on Pro Max costs three times as much.

Poptin's free plan includes the exit-intent trigger, which OptinMonster and Getsitecontrol keep for paid plans. The limit is traffic: the free plan covers 1,000 visitors a month on one domain, and it shows a "Powered by Poptin" credit. That suits a new blog or a small service business testing whether an exit offer gets sign-ups at all.

Formats cover lightboxes, floating bars, full-screen overlays, slide-ins, gamified pop-ups and contact forms. Poptin's A/B testing compares timing, templates and triggers, so you can test an exit pop-up against a timed one on the same page. It has more than 70 native integrations, apps for WordPress, Shopify and Wix, and connects to more tools through Zapier and Make.

Basic costs $20 a month billed yearly ($240), or $25 month to month, for 10,000 visitors on one domain, and Pro costs $47 a month billed yearly, or $59 month to month, for 50,000 visitors on four domains.

Poptin describes exit intent in terms of the mouse moving toward the top of the screen and does not say how it works on phones.

Popupsmart is worth a look if you run a Shopify store and want the exit offer to depend on what is in the cart. Its Shopify targeting can show or hide a pop-up by cart total, products in the cart, the shopper's registered address or whether they are logged in. So a shopper leaving with $80 in the cart can see free shipping, while one with an empty cart sees a sign-up form.

Popupsmart documents both sides of its exit trigger. On a desktop it fires as the cursor moves toward the exit tab, and on a phone it tracks scrolling and shows the pop-up when the visitor suddenly scrolls up. The AI builder drafts a pop-up from a description of the campaign in under 30 seconds. It installs with one snippet on Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, Wix or a custom site.

The free plan is small: 5,000 pageviews, one website and one live pop-up. Basic costs $39 a month, or $32.50 billed yearly, for 50,000 pageviews on three websites, but A/B testing starts on Advanced at $69 a month. The pricing page does not say which plans include exit intent, so check it during setup before you pay.
