How to create a free popup for your Shopify account

Shopify is a top e-commerce platform that makes it simple for businesses to establish and manage their online store. Its user-friendly design and customisable features offer a smooth and efficient experience for both merchants and customers alike.

Popups offer customers a quick and convenient way to access the information they need. With their ability to provide immediate answers to common questions, popups can reduce response times and improve the overall customer experience.

Step 2. How to install a free popup on Shopify

Using HTML

If you're a tech-savvy person or have a developer in your team, it's easy to add a Serviceform Popup to your Shopify website using HTML. 

To start, click on the website you’ve set up on your Serviceform account and select settings. 

Then, copy the pixel code. 


Log in to your Shopify store's admin panel and go to the themes page which is under the online store. Find the theme you want to add the pixel code to and click on "Actions" then select "Edit code".



In the "Layout" folder, click on "theme.liquid". Find the <head> section in the code and paste the pixel code immediately after the opening <head> tag.



Simply add the pixel code that you’ve copied, in the head tag section and hit "Save changes”. 


Voila! Your Shopify website just got a lot cooler with Serviceform’s Smart popup. 


Using Google Tag Manager

No worries if HTML isn't your thing. Installing the Serviceform pixel into your Shopify website using Google Tag Manager is easy. 

Simply choose the option to install via Google Tag Manager in your Serviceform account, then copy your unique pixel code.

Next, head over to your Google Tag Manager account and create a new tag. Then name your tag.

Once you've named your tag, head to the tag configuration and choose custom HTML from the drop-down menu. Then, simply paste the Serviceform pixel code you copied earlier into the code area.

Then click on ‘triggering’ and select ‘all pages.’ Then save your work and press submit. In the submission configuration screen, type ‘Adding Serviceform pixel’ into the ‘Version name’ area, and you’re all set. 

Step 3. Test if your Serviceform pixel is live

You can check if your pixel is active by looking at the top right corner of your dashboard.

If you see a green circle, that means it's active and ready to go. But if you see a red circle, it means it's not active yet. No worries, just give it a quick check and get it up and running in no time.
