Popup analytics gives brands an aggregate overview of popup performance broken down into several criterion including impressions, engagements, and conversations.

Available data updates every 15 minutes.


With Popup Analytics, you can:

  • View impressions, engagements, phone, and email conversations for each popup.

  • Understand activity attributed to each popup by day, week, or month.

  • Easily digest analytics in either interactive charts or aggregated tables.

  • Export data for personal analysis or to use with your data warehouse.

To navigate to message analytics, select Data & Insights in the side menu of your Postscript dashboard, then select Popups.

Under Popups, the data displayed in the graph will depend on the time period and filters you've selected.

  1. Select Opted-in Subscriber View or Submission View from the View.

  2. Select a date range from the Date drop-down menu or set a custom date range. Then set the Date Interval drop-down menu to set how data displays (by day, week, etc.).

  3. Select which metrics appear via the KPI Selector drop-down menu, then select whether to analyze Unique Impressions, Impressions, Total Phone Conversations, Phone Conversations, Email Conversations, or Engagements.
