Privy has proven to be an invaluable tool for businesses looking to target their customers and solve the challenges associated with international expansion. Through its exit pop-up feature, Privy allows businesses to capture a high percentage of website visitors who would have otherwise been lost. Moreover, Privy has evolved from a basic lead capture service to a full-service platform, enabling businesses to move leads down the sales funnel. Customers appreciate the automation of emails provided by Privy, which saves time and streamlines email marketing efforts. Additionally, Privy allows businesses to grow their email lists and easily conduct A/B testing to determine which offers drive conversion. By collecting contact information from website visitors, Privy assists businesses in email marketing and addressing issues like cart abandonment. Customers have found significant value in Privy's ability to customize their email lists and reach customers who don't use social media platforms. Its email capture, SMS capture, and abandoned cart recovery features have proved effective in driving sales and improving customer retention. Furthermore, Privy's gamified wheel of fortune tool engages site visitors, captures their contact information, and reduces cart abandonment rates. Overall, Privy has solved crucial problems related to customer targeting, lead capture, email marketing automation, and cart abandonment for businesses of all sizes.

We are using Privy for our email marketing, for our cart abandonment, and exit popups. We used several email marketing platforms and Privy was by far the easiest of the bunch to setup and use especially with the training sessions we received by our rep Melissa. Privy's cart abandonment works so well that we stopped using the one built into our website and switched that over completely to Privy.
  • Privy is phenomenally user friendly, email campaigns are very easy to create.
  • Privy has great customer service and implementation, our rep is Melissa who went above and beyond in getting everything setup.
  • It gets some getting used to setting up emails with pictures.
  • Service isn't cheap but you get what you pay for.
I would highly recommend Privy, their personal help of going into settings with you is great and it's very user friendly and makes campaigns look professional. I would 100% recommend this to someone using BigCommerce as Privy integrates natively with that platform making it easy to use and no external app is needed or used.
  • We have had better conversion rates on our emails.
  • We spend less time creating email marketing campaigns that look professional.
After having used quite a few email marketing platforms, I can say out of all of them we like Privy the best. Privy's integration with the BigCommerce platform makes it much easier to use than the others we tried in the past and we are happy with the results we have gotten and their excellent customer support which is superior especially to Mailchimp which can only be reached by email.

We use Privy on several of our ecommerce stores. The main function is to increase our email acquisition conversion, though we also use it for on-site messaging and product upsells. It is used by our team members within the marketing department, though client services occasionally has suggestions as well. We capture more emails per day using Privy than our standard email capture.
  • Spin To Win wheel
  • Cart upsells
  • Drag and drop editor
  • Integrations with Non-Shopify Stores
  • Integrations with different email service providers
  • Reporting with non-shopify stores
Adding Privy to your ecommerce store is a no brainer. You can very quickly increase your on-site email acquisition conversion rate through the Spin To Win wheel and other templates that Privy offers. You can also use it for additional on-site messaging like announcement bars and landing pages.
  • We have 3X'd our on site email acquisition on average
  • Sold thousands of dollars of merchandise through product upsells
The customer support team from Privy is incredible (shout out to Simone). Every person I have worked with has been knowledgable, helpful, polite, and responsive. They have a live chat feature and all CSRs do a great job.
Privy is very easy to use and is intuitive to new users. The templates they provide give you a head start on campaign builds and their customer success team is approachable and knowledgable about the product. You do not have to be a tech wizard to get rolling with Privy, but the results will make you feel that way.
