We've been using Privy for almost a year to help boost our email opt-ins, manage email automation's and provide a better over-all user experience. Having a single tool to manage so many elements all in one has been a game-changer. Highly recommend this platform for any growing business.

We've used this app for nearly 2 months. It worked great and the output could meet our expectation. Also, the support is very efficient. They helped us with an urgent issue in 24 hours. Good job!

Used the free branded version for a year. Then suddenly they ended the free version without notifying me. As a small business owner I have a lot on my plate every day and checking whether or not my pop-up is working as it was set up should not be one of them. Do not recommend. If you want my money, you have to act like you deserve it, Privy.

This app is great for pop-ups and i used the free version for almost 2 years. i then upgraded to the paid version which is combined with emails, and moved my email marketing over from Mailchimp. Unfortunately the Privy email marketing aspect of the app leaves a lot to be desired. Analytics are not very deep, and there isn't a way to cue any new email sign up from the store (not via a pop-up) to receive the welcome series. It integrates well with the pop-ups but is lacking in other ways. So i will be exploring other options. Not worth the monthly cost for pop-ups only, and not good enough as an email marketing app. I wish there was a cost-effective way to just use the pop-ups because it's too expensive to pay this fee and another email marketing app fee. Disappointed.

Such an amazing app. Easy and fun to use. Helps grow our email list, convert, and cart recovery. A must-have for ecommerce.

So far so good! I am hoping there are some additional features they will add, but the app works well especially at collecting emails.

Excellent app that has increased our revenue. The customer support is fantastic - fast response from real people who will happily speak with you to help you refine your campaigns. Only criticism is it would be better if the Free Shipping Bar was editable for multiple countries. Thanks Privy!

I feel excited whenever I get an email from privy showing my email sign-ups! It's easy to use with lots of helpful options and features.

Great app for great price that grows with your list. Easy to set up, very helpful staff to get you on-boarded. A little annoying that when editing the emails there is no auto save or if you click the back button by accident it will return without saving or prompting for saving. Overall, better than Mailchimp if you have shopify!

An excellent App. I've used it now for about a year. The pop ups have generated more email sign ups than ever before. The abandon cart emails have saved many sales and its great to see the conversion stats. I recently started using the cross sell and upsell and it's so easy to setup. The free shipping bar had a few issues for my theme, but the team was quick to respond and incredibly helpful. Love the app. Highly recommend

Money heist alert!! Be super aware before you activate the paid plan. Privy has the most ridiculous policy that says, removing the app does not automatically stop the billing. We tried the app and uninstalled it the same month, the billing keeps rolling. Privy support will not refund all the extra charges, although they can clearly see that we didn’t take advantage of the app at all after removing the app, Yes, we are responsible for not carefully reading the policy but Privy can easily correct this by verifying and refunding full payment. Their policy doesn't make sense at all and it almost sounds like a trap. UPDATE from 1 star to 3 star: After seeing the initial review, Privy's billing team verified our last login to the app is actually same as we claimed(last year), they refunded all the remaining amount. The whole experience can be a lot better should their support team make the proper refund in the first place. I wish Privy will consider changing the "removing app doesn't auto remove billing" policy as that is still a big trap to any Shopify store owner. Or at least alert the owners with email or something after the app removal.

Love Privy! Very intuitive, and allowed me to build relationships with my customers and let them know about new products we're introducing. Highly recommend

Surprised Privy's prompting me for a review since they have just tripled what I was paying. It's well integrated into my site it so I am going to pay (a logic which I suppose they were banking on?) but it seems almost unethical to jack prices up to such a degree.

Privy just prompted me to write a review after cornering me into paying more than double the cost of my original plan. I purchased and set up privy over a year ago to install pop ups and manage my email list and a few days ago they just shut all of my pop ups and embedded forms off because it's "no longer included in my plan". Since I paid a coder to integrate privy's platform for me, and I'm not in the position to pay yet another professional to set up yet another marketing app, I'm going to go ahead and pay double for the exact same features because I really have no choice. Functionality is pretty good, but I've got a bad taste in my mouth from being mislead on pricing.

I'm in the process of switching to Privy from another email server....so far so good! I have used their Welcome Pop Up for quite some time and find that helpful, along with the email I receive notifying me that someone has signed up for my emails.

I find this app hard to use. I also notice that my emails go straight to junk mail or never get sent. I don’t think it’s worth it.

Very helpful team and very useful app if you make the most of it. Still learning, but already it's contributing.
