What is a Post Purchase Popup?

A post purchase popup is an in-store offer that appears immediately after a player completes a purchase. These popups are a strategic monetization tool used by game publishers to increase monetization KPIs such as deposits and ARPPU by offering an irresistible, ‘one time’ deal at a moment when they are most likely to be receptive. This selling technique can be utilized across various business strategies and personalized using segmentation and triggers, making users feel exclusive and appreciated.
