Privy ‑ Email, SMS & Pop Ups

We've had a great experience using Privy to grow our email list and improve customer engagement. The pop-up builder is easy to use, and setting up campaigns like welcome discounts, exit intent offers, and abandoned cart recovery was surprisingly straightforward. We also appreciate having email, SMS, and popups in one platform instead of juggling multiple apps. The integration with Shopify is seamless, and the analytics make it easy to understand what's working and optimize over time. Overall, it's a powerful tool for stores looking to improve conversions and build stronger customer retention.

I originally signed up for a monthly plan of $15 to create a pop-up. Without knowing, I have been charged $45 monthly for my users which don't have anything to do with the use of the app. This is absolutely absurd.

Unfortunately, we are experiencing issues with the pop-up during Black Friday, and the first-line support team doesn’t seem willing to fully understand the problem or take the time to resolve it. It’s been over 48 hours, and all we’ve heard so far is: “Yes, the pop-up appears.”

We are already aware that the pop-up appears, but what we need is an analysis of *why* it is showing up more than 1,000 times with a 0% subscription rate. Additionally, we are receiving emails from customers reporting errors after signing in.

Could someone from the complaints department please review this ticket?

I recently had an issue and the Privy support team, particularly Uri and David, were incredibly helpful. They provided clear guidance and ensured that my email campaigns were running smoothly again. I’m really impressed with the level of service and professionalism. Highly recommended! Thank you, Uri, David and the Privy team!

The app is very easy to use and offers a good variety of examples that you can use for yourself. When i subscribed i got an 1 hour onboarding call which was a very pleasant surprise. the people of privy are super friendly and they had a lot of good ideas for our email campaigns. Would definitely recommend!

Once you subscribe, you'll get charged forever. They don't provide customer service contact number or email. They charge 6 months more after I uninstalled the service. Worst customer service. I had to contact the card company to stop charging it.

We've been using Privy for almost a decade now and it has quadrupled in usability and usefulness. They are always adding new features and it works seamlessly with Shopify.

What really impresses me is their customer success staff. Especially Henry. What a beast! We redid our old popups and got a 5x better signup rate. Great company and will continue using for years.

We've been with Privy now for about a month, and we couldn't be happier. The reason we came over from another platform is that the previous one didn't offer phone support, which is vital for us.

Henry has been meeting with me weekly via Zoom to show me around the app, such as how to set up automations and flows, and his expertise and patience with all my questions is so much appreciated.

I would recommend Privy to any company wishing to up their email marketing game. They're absolutely top notch in my book.

It will charge you for "usage fees" and it won't be very easy to figure out what they are. We used a very basic setup and forgot about it only to realize we were being charged $45+ USD a month for literally an email signup. If you're just getting started, use the free shopify email app and save yourself the headaches.

Changed over from Omnisend, email marketing is 50% app, 50% the person you work with.
With that said, Henry has been great the past two months in our transition.
We're not 100% fully on boarded yet.
Privy is missing some features, that is in the pipeline, will be looking forward to utilizing those features when it releases end of July!
More to come
