Where it sits in the set
Every figure below is counted from the 152 popups captured in the same pass, not from a benchmark report.
- The offer is 50% off. The median percent offer in the set is 15% and the mode is 15%, so this sits above 89% of the 84 percent offers captured. 2 brands in the set landed on the same number.
- The field is on the first pane, no gate. 76 of 152 popups (50%) still do that.
- Rendered by Alia, the most common vendor in the set, accounting for 56 of the 152 popups.
- It waits 6.1 seconds. The median timed popup in the set fires at 7.3s, so this one is faster than the middle, and 40 of 114 timed popups appear sooner.
- On desktop the card covers 60% of the viewport, larger than 86% of the desktop captures.
- The first field asks for email, as 104 of the 108 popups where a field was visible do.

This brand in The Handoff
Cuts also has an ad and landing page teardown in The Handoff, which is where this brand list came from. The handoff there is rated {'rating': 'Partial', 'note': 'The garment carries across: the sand textured crew in the ad is the Riviera Knit Textured Tee in Sand Dune, sitting in the first row of the collection grid at $68 with 27 reviews. What breaks the line is what sits on top of it. A full screen Anniversary Sale Up To 50% Off email capture covers the fold, and the grid itself opens mid scroll with no collection banner, so there is no headline restating the lightweight breathable knit the ad sold. The page also front loads $20 Off and $30 Off badges the ad never raised, so the first idea after the click is a sale rather than the fabric.'}. Read the Cuts teardown.
How this was captured
Headless Chromium, US egress, fresh session, first visit. The page was loaded, scrolled, and on desktop given an exit-intent pass, with up to 32 seconds allowed for a timed popup. Nothing was typed into any form. Where a popup hid its field behind a yes/no or a quiz, a single click was allowed to reveal the next pane and no further, so "first field" means the first field a visitor actually sees. The same capture re-runs the week of Black Friday and this page gains a second column.
