Beyond spin-to-win: what summer sale popup game would you actually test?

Hi everyone, I work on popup and gamification flows for Shopify stores, and I’ve been thinking about summer sale campaigns.

Spin-to-win is still everywhere, but I’m curious whether merchants actually want something different at this point.

If you were going to test a popup game for a summer campaign, what would you want to try besides the usual wheel?

I’m thinking about formats like:

  • scratch card
  • mystery reveal
  • pick-a-box
  • a light summer-themed game
  • something tied to product discovery rather than pure luck

I’d love to hear what you’d realistically test on your store, and also what usually stops you:

  • looks too gimmicky
  • feels off-brand
  • weak signup quality
  • too hard to set up

Curious what feels fresh enough to try, but still simple enough to convert.
