Multi-site management

Manage campaigns across multiple sites from one account with separate analytics per site.

Delivery transparency

Full delivery logs with payload preview and one-click replay. Know exactly what was sent and when.

How does Visisto compare to Privy for Shopify stores?

Privy is deeply integrated with Shopify and includes basic email marketing for Shopify-native workflows. Visisto works on Shopify via script tag and connects to Klaviyo or Mailchimp natively — without Zapier. Visisto adds gamified widgets (spin wheels, scratch cards), built-in A/B testing, and transparent plan-based pricing. For stores already using Klaviyo, Visisto delivers contacts directly to your existing flows.

Is Visisto cheaper than Privy for growing ecommerce stores?

Privy's Growth plan starts at $30/mo for up to 1,000 contacts, but scales to ~$65/mo at 10,000 contacts and more as your list grows. Visisto starts at £24/mo with no per-contact fees and clear plan limits by tier. For stores with growing lists, Visisto is typically cheaper than running separate popup and middleware tools.

Does Visisto work outside of Shopify unlike Privy?

Yes. Visisto installs with one script tag on any platform — Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow, WordPress, Wix, or custom-built sites. Privy is primarily designed for Shopify, with limited support for other platforms. If you run multiple stores on different platforms, Visisto manages all of them from one dashboard.
