Understanding Pop-Up Message Types

1. Status Update

  • What is it? A status update box designed to broadcast informative messages such as weather alerts, warnings, or special events.
  • When should I use it? Use this message type for operational updates like temporary closures, adverse weather conditions, or urgent announcements that affect your customers.

2. Call to Action

  • What is it? A promotional message designed to encourage user engagement by linking to another webpage.
  • When should I use it? Ideal for creating urgency and driving attention to specific offers, such as limited-time discounts, new product launches, or event registrations. 

3. Prompt to Chat

  • What is it? A chat-styled greeting designed to initiate conversations with your visitors. It’s displayed as a larger, more prominent chat box to attract engagement.
  • When should I use it? Perfect for use on high-traffic pages, like your Contact page or enquiry forms, to encourage interaction.

4. Chat Bubble

  • What is it? A subtle and informal communication tool for sharing quick tips, notifications, or reminders.
  • When should I use it?: Best suited for non-intrusive notifications, such as booking deadlines, frequently asked questions, or brief guidance messages.
