What Type of Promotions Work Best in a Floating Popup?

Floating popups are small, always-visible boxes that subtly hover on a page without blocking content. hey perform best when they offer something instantly valuable and easy to claim:

• Discount codes, coupon codes.
• Seasonal sales.
• Bonus entries into contests or a link to enter your Gleam contest.
• Exclusive access to newsletters with offers, discounts or content.
• Get a Demo.

Unlike full-screen or timed popups that demand attention, floating popups gently earn it. They’re designed to engage users in a low-friction, non-disruptive way that feels more like an interactive nudge than an interruption.

This means they can also be good to display subtle messages that linger on the screen but don't take away from the user experience too much

• Announcements like restocks or store updates.
• Newsletter or email list signups.
• Events such as blogs or webinars.
• Collecting Reviews on Trustpilot or other review platforms.
