The Popup Zen Box is a cleaner, simpler way to collect emails with a popup.
It looks great, works great, and stays out of the way of your site visitors.
Integrate your email provider, choose where to show it, customize the colors, and publish. Done!
No complex settings or 3rd party SaaS dependencies.
Features
<ul>
<li>Customize the text, image, and colors</li>
<li>Choose where it displays – posts, pages, taxonomies, etc.</li>
<li>Integrate your email provider: MailChimp, ConvertKit, MailPoet 3, Drip, Active Campaign, or send to your email address</li>
</ul>
Why Popup Zen?
Popup Zen is clean, fast, and simple. It’s also non-intrusive.
Obnoxious popups may have a good opt-in rate, but they could be damaging your brand. Popup Zen is a new way to get high quality leads without pissing off your site visitors.
<ul>
<li>Simply collect emails</li>
<li>Minimalist design, easy to use</li>
<li>Ultra-lightweight codebase</li>
</ul>
We built Popup Zen because we just couldn’t bring ourselves to put that horrible popup in front of our site visitors. We wanted something that represented our brand better.
Instead of damaging your brand just to get a higher opt-in rate, Popup Zen believes in building trust.
Popup Zen gets high-quality leads by asking permission before displaying a popup. This builds trust with your site visitors, and keeps your brand image intact.
What it won’t do
<ul>
<li>Create obnoxious spinning and shaking animations</li>
<li>Choose from 100 different designs</li>
<li>Create insanely complex rules for how to display it</li>
<li>Block the screen without permission</li>
</ul>

Popup Zen – Small, Simple, Lightweight Email Optin

I like the philosophy : very simple and efficient. You won’t find all the options of some other plugins of this type but you may need something not complicated.

Clean and simple

I've used a number of popup plugins and they always seem overly complicated. Popup Zen wasn't like that at all. I installed it, connected my mailchimp account and had a pop-up created in under 5 minutes.

Dead. Simple.

Popup Zen just became my new favorite popup tool. Thanks, Scott!

5 Minute Setup

I had to use some CSS-adjustments with custom classes. For example, there is no spot to properly show some privacy information, so I used a custom class in to content area to display this small text.
I also had problems with the image: When I deactivated "do not crop", it wouldn't display. (Maybe something with lazyload?) With cropping disabled the banner looks kind of awful, so I used CSS to cover that up.

works well after some adjustments

This plugin got me a 5% improvement on my GTMetrix score. That's a huge bump. The lightweight scripts and clean CSS delivered and compiled into the site was a major advantage.

Previously, I had configured the standard Mailchimp popup on the MC site and integrated using the MC4WP plugin. It was loading 2-5 remote scripts, remote images, and remote CSS which created extra HTTP requests and added anywhere from 300-500k to a page load.

This plugin eliminated the remote script loading lag, allowed scripts to be combined, served from our Cloudflare cache ... 

BOTTOM LINE: it's a must have if you want a modern popup solution that is unobtrusive to your clients visually and in terms of site performance.

p.s. I would love to see an option to alter the amount of time that the thank you message is shown after someone submits their email!

perfect, lightweight, improved GTMetrix score for Mailchimp

A WordPress popup that is ultra lightweight, simple to use, and small.
