# OneClick Popup
Explains how OneClick's one-tap subscription flow works and how to set it up to convert returning visitors.
Use this guide to understand how the OneClick Popup works and how to set it up so you can convert more returning visitors into subscribers — with no typing required.
### What is OneClick?
**OneClick Opt-in** is Recart’s revolutionary feature that enables a one-click subscription experience for SMS and email lists. By removing the need for typing, OneClick helps increase subscriber conversions and offers users a faster, simpler sign-up process.
#### Benefits at a Glance:
* **Higher Conversion Rates:** Increase opt-in rates by making the process easier.
* **Streamlined Experience:** Users only need to click once to subscribe, no typing required.
* **Faster Sign-ups:** Complete sign-ups in seconds.
### How OneClick Works
OneClick works for returning visitors who have already opted in through a Recart popup on your store. When one of these visitors comes back, Recart recognizes them and serves the OneClick Popup instead of the standard Welcome Popup.
1. A visitor opts in through a Recart popup on your store.
2. When that same visitor returns to your store, Recart recognizes their browser through the Recart Pixel and shows the OneClick Popup instead of the standard Welcome Popup.
3. Their phone number and email are pre-filled. They verify their identity and confirm with one tap.
If a visitor is **not** recognized, they are automatically shown your standard **Welcome Popup** instead.
Recognition currently works per store: a visitor who opted in on another store that uses Recart isn't recognized on yours.
### Why Use OneClick?
OneClick provides a seamless experience that users love. With no repeated typing or forms, it minimizes effort and maximizes convenience. This frictionless approach translates into higher subscription rates and an improved user experience.
**Example Scenario:**
A shopper opts in through one of your Recart popups. Weeks later, they return to your store in the same browser. Recart recognizes them, so they see your OneClick Popup with their details already filled in — and with one click, they're subscribed.
### The OneClick Popup Experience
The OneClick Popup has four steps, displayed on both desktop and mobile:
| Step | What the visitor sees |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Teaser** | Your offer headline and a "YES, PLEASE" / "NO, THANKS" choice |
| **Verification** | A code is sent to their known phone number to confirm identity |
| **Opt-in** | Their phone number and email are pre-filled — one tap on **Confirm** to subscribe |
| **Success** | Confirmation message, discount code (optional), and a "GO SHOPPING" button |
On the Opt-in step, visitors can also:
* Click **Change** to update their pre-filled email address
* Click **"This isn't me"** on the Verification step to exit OneClick and start the standard opt-in flow from scratch
### Before You Get Started
**Availability:** The OneClick Popup is only available for stores targeting US-based visitors. Geographic targeting outside the United States is not supported for this popup type. Returning-visitor recognition works on Shopify stores only.
**Important:** You must always have both a OneClick Popup and an active Welcome Popup running at the same time.
### How to Create a OneClick Popup
1. Go to [**Opt-in Tools**](https://app.recart.com/optin-tools?dateFrom=2026-03-18T00_00\&dateTo=2026-04-17T23_59) and click **Create New**.
2. In the creation modal, select **OneClick Popup**.
3. A simplified setup wizard opens — choose a design from your previously used templates to apply existing styling.
4. Edit the copy and offer details on each step (Teaser, Verification, Opt-in, Success).
5. In **Settings**, select your active Welcome Popup as the **fallback** for "This isn't me" clicks.
6. Set your targeting rules under **Pages** if needed. Note that the OneClick Popup only supports **United States** as a geographic target — other regions are not available for this popup type.
7. Click **Save** and set the popup to **Active**.
These streamlined steps allow you to quickly create high-converting OneClick popups that prefill the details returning visitors already gave your store and eliminate the need for typing.
To ensure a smooth subscriber experience, make sure you always have both a OneClick popup and a regular Welcome popup active at the same time.
{% hint style="success" %}
If a visitor clicks *“This isn’t me”* on the OneClick popup, they will automatically be shown your active Welcome popup to start the opt-in process from scratch.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="danger" %}
If no standard Welcome popup is active, the visitor will not see any opt-in option and will be redirected back to your site without subscribing.
{% endhint %}
### Best Practices
* **Required:** Keep an active Welcome Popup running alongside your OneClick Popup at all times — without it, unrecognized visitors and "This isn't me" clicks have nowhere to go.
* **Recommended:** Match your OneClick Popup offer to your Welcome Popup offer — visitors may see both over time.
* **Recommended:** Use URL targeting rules if you're running multiple popups to avoid conflicts.
* **Avoid:** Activating a OneClick Popup without setting a fallback — visitors who click "This isn't me" will leave without subscribing.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**Q: Is OneClick compliant with data privacy regulations?**
Yes. OneClick is designed with user consent and privacy in line with data protection standards. It only recognizes visitors who already opted in through a Recart popup on your store. No fingerprinting and no purchased data.
**Q: What if a user is not recognized?**
If unrecognized, users will see the standard opt-in form.
**Q: Does OneClick recognize visitors who subscribed on other stores?**
Not at the moment. Recognition currently works per store, so a visitor who opted in on another store that uses Recart is treated as a new visitor on yours.
**Q: What happens when a user clicks “This isn’t me”?**
When a user clicks the **“This isn’t me”** button on the OneClick popup, they will be served a standard Welcome Popup instead, so they can opt in again with new details. Remember, you need to have both a OneClick popup and a regular Welcome popup active at the same time so that the user can subscribe from scratch if they click **“This isn’t me”.**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.recart.com/list-growth/popups/oneclick-popup.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
