Since Push Notifications requires the website be on SSL aka HTTPS we create a sub domain for you which is a valid HTTPS sub domain like https://accountname.pushassist.com. We can also help you setup PushAssist if you have your own Https domain and want to send notifications from your domain name.

What will happen when i reach 3000 subscribers in my FREE account?

Once you reach 3000 subscribers, PushAssist will continue to work and let you collect subscribers but will not let you send notifications to these new subscribers. You can send unlimited notifications to your first 3000 subscriber but to send notifications to all subscribers you need to upgrade to premium (Paid) account. Check our pricing plans.

What will push notifications look like?

That depends on the browser! Each browser will display your notifications somewhat differently, but in general the notifications will look appropriate for the device/OS/browser on which they are displayed

Are there any design templates to choose for opt-in box?

Yes, there are many templates for opt-in box. Configuration is possible within your PushAssist control panel.

Targeting Subscribers with Segments

You can quickly categorize subscribers into different segments. This helps you efficiently target a particular set of subscribers registered under particular segments (group). A typical use case could be one segment each for your categories i.e. Sports, Fitness, Homepage, Pricing etc.

  1. Step 1: Create segments from Segments tab.

  2. Step 2: Add the following JS code on your category pages or on any pages of your site

Subscribing for Single Segment

<script>
    var _pa = [];
    _pa.push('Sports');
</script>

**Subscribing for Multiple Segments

<script>
    var _pa = [];
    _pa.push('Sports', 'Fitness');
</script>

Soon, you have some subscribers under segments, you would be able to send personalized messages to specific segments. Users interested in Sports are more likely to click on your notifications about Sports than Politics.

I want to thank these guys for helping me a couple of times. The product is complex, but you can do quite a few things with no programming skills. It would be awesome if we could delete the unsubscribed users completely, instead of weekly but that’s okay! Also add Push Amplification feature to target Chinese OEMs. Many thanks from Australia!

Hey PushAssist team, this is Jim! We have had multiple conversations on your chat support channel and i must agree that your support is polite and super responsive. The way you helped me with GDPR settings for my UK customers is beyond expectations. I have nothing but good words for you.

Awesome plugin that sends out my push messages to all subscribers as soon as a new article is published. Please mention that in order to disable automatic push notifications for post update someone has to disable that feature from settings. It took me a while to figure that out. For my other blog which is in French, i wish you come up with a french version. Nevertheless, i have a very good vibe for this plugin.

I like this plugin as compare to others in same category simply because it does what it should. The free version still has sufficient subscribers for small projects and my wordpress blogs. I had trouble finding my total subscribers and account stats which after talking to support i found under reports. Also couldn’t get my signup email which ironically came 5 minutes late. Everything works just fine. Thanks a lot for your moods and skills <3

Mobile notifications are only if you upgrade to premium. You have to state that in the description or before time was wasted making an account. I don’t mind paying, just don’t like surprises.
