Variation

If we reposition the chat pop-up so it doesn’t block key shopping actions, then the site’s conversion rate will increase because users will have an uninterrupted view of important CTAs and product information.

What We Changed

  • Repositioned the chat pop-up to a less intrusive spot.
  • Disabled 'Stay in the Game' pop-up.
  • Ensured chat no longer overlaps with key CTAs and navigation.
  • Made the chat icon smaller on mobile and positioned it over non-interactive space.
  • Auto-minimized or kept the chat minimized by default.
