Working with capture widgets

Ortto’s capture widgets are website widgets that help you convert your store’s or website’s visitors into subscribers, as well as capture these visitors' attention when, for example, you have a sale or an import message to share with your audience.

Capture widgets are configured in Ortto and are designed to appear on your website when specific criteria have been met.

Capture widgets are designed to have a greeting to engage and encourage website users to enter data, and a thank you to provide immediate feedback for their participation.
