Has anyone tried the "Wheelio" app from Conversion Pirate?

[Tanmit_Singh]

I just came across this app, it was a sponsored link on my facebook feed (go figure)

https://apps.shopify.com/wheelio-first-interactive-exit-intent-pop-up

The app hasn't been reviewed by Shopify yet and there aren't any reviews on either. The developer also doesn't have any other apps...

So i'm just wondering if I should risk installing it or not.

Any help?

Thanks,

Good Day Tanmit

I have been using Wheelio for a few month now paying $14.92 dollars a month for the basic version that doesn't even have email validation. Anyway, I was looking for Wheelio alternatives but they all have one unique problem monthly subscription with the minimum functionality. And I have found one just recently called Spinio you can check all details here http://bit.ly/wheelio_alternative. What is great about it that it sells for a one-time price and have much much more features than its competitors. But most importantly it can be installed on both Shopify Stores and WordPress blogs you have.

I think this is what you are looking for. Best wishes.

Hi Tanmit,

Gamification is a great way to engage web visitors and this what Wheelio aims to achieve for its users. The idea is simple - visitors enter their email id and get a chance to win a discount coupon by spinning the wheel. But here's a catch - most of the people are a) reluctant to share their email address and b) People often enter spam email to get the discount coupon. Though there is a validation check for spam emails but they do come with a higher priced plan. 

If your main objective is to engage your web visitors and turn them into loyal customers, then I would suggest you give browser notifications a chance. Apart from solving the two problems stated above, browser notifications also help you to - a) re-target users abandoning carts, b) Engage users and c) Retain these users.

Hope this helps :)
