Popup forms - SurveyOwl

A popup keeps the form out of the way until you want it. It works well for feedback, contact and lead forms that shouldn’t take over the page.

Set it up

Open the Share tab, choose Popup under Embed on your site, and set these options:

Option	What it does
Open	When the popup appears: On button click, On page load, After elapsed time, On exit intent or After scrolling. Elapsed time asks for a delay in seconds. Scrolling asks for a percentage of the page.
Position	Bottom right corner, Bottom left corner or Center. Bottom left also left-aligns the form’s content.
Button text	The label on the trigger button. Only shown for On button click.
Width	280 to 800 px.
Dark overlay	Dims the page behind the popup.
Hide on submit	Closes the popup a moment after someone submits.
Show only once	Opens automatically at most once per visitor. Not available for button click.
Don’t show after submit	Stops opening automatically for people who’ve already submitted. Not available for button click.

The last two are remembered in the visitor’s browser. Copy the generated code and paste it anywhere on the page, ideally just before the closing </body> tag.

Things to watch for

Keep the trigger away from cookie banners, chat widgets and mobile navigation. One popup per page is plenty unless each has a clearly different job. To test Show only once or Don’t show after submit, use a private window. Otherwise your own browser storage will get in the way.
