How to Customize Website Overlays

Elements
Customize your overlay using the below elements:
Text: Add your text to the overlay. You can stylize your input using the floating toolbar.
Image: Select an image from our library to place on your overlay or upload one from your local storage. You can use this option to add your logo. After adding, you can drag and drop the image to re-position it. Resizing is also easy.
Video: Upload an MP4 video from your system or paste the YouTube video URL to display to visitors.
Button: Add call-to-action (CTAs) to the overlay and set the desired action event upon click based on its placement.
Timer: Promote time-sensitive offers by attaching a timer with the overlay. You can select from where the timer countdown will begin. Either a specific date and time or when the popup appears on the screen. You can shuffle between the two conditions based on your requirements.
Input Fields
Based on your popup content, you can collect input from customers by adding fields to the overlay. Use the name, email, or phone field. You can also add custom fields and collect additional information. Moreover, you can make any field mandatory for your target visitors.
Mobile Preview
You can toggle to mobile view to get a visual understanding of how your pop-up will appear on mobile devices. You can use this view to design a mobile-friendly overlay.
Don’t forget to click Save at the end and proceed to configure campaign settings.
