How Can I Use Exit-Intent Trigger on Popupsmart?
Emel DalabasmazPopupsmart exit intent lives under Segment → Edit Segment → User behaviour. Desktop fires on mouse-leave toward the close control. Mobile fires on upward-scroll speed. Sensitivity is low, medium, or high.
Vendor source: Exit intent targeting, checked August 2026. Exit intent is on every plan, including Free, per popupsmart.com/pricing.
How do I turn it on?
- Open the campaign, or + New Campaign.
- Left bar → Segment. Edit Segment (or the two circular arrows for a predefined segment / My Segment).
- Under User Behaviour, Add user behavior targeting.
- Next to Exit Intent, click Add.
- Set sensitivity.
- Save, then Publish. Confirm the campaign toggle on the dashboard is on.
What do low, medium, and high mean?
The vendor's wording: sensitivity is the distance of the cursor to the close icon.
- Low: cursor has to get very close.
- Medium: default for most campaigns.
- High: the smallest move toward leave.
On mobile it is not mouse-leave. It is scroll-up speed. To show on phones, enable mobile on the campaign (Visitor Device). A desktop-only campaign will never fire the mobile rule.
