Getsitecontrol: what it is, how it works & who it's for

Popups, forms and email marketing in one low-cost tool for small sites and stores

Updated · Pricing checked October 2026

What is Getsitecontrol?

Getsitecontrol is an on-site marketing tool that combines popups, forms and surveys with email campaigns and automations, so small businesses can grow a list and email it from one account. You build widgets such as opt-in forms, promo bars, exit popups and surveys without code, then send newsletters and automated emails to the contacts they collect. It installs on any website and has a dedicated Shopify app.

The pricing model is unusual. Subscriptions are cheap and mainly control how many times your widgets can be shown each month, while email sending is bought separately per thousand messages. Every plan includes unlimited contacts and widgets. Getsitecontrol is run by Getwebcraft Limited, and its target users include online stores, publishers, agencies, tour operators and nonprofits that want a simple, affordable setup.

How does Getsitecontrol work?

  1. Add the widget code

    Paste a script on any site or install the Shopify app, which also syncs customers and order events.

  2. Build popups and forms

    Choose a template for an opt-in form, survey, promo bar or exit popup and set when and where it appears.

  3. Collect and organize contacts

    New signups land in your contact list, where you can tag and segment them or import lists from Mailchimp, Shopify or CSV.

  4. Send campaigns and automations

    Write broadcasts with templates and the AI assistant, and set up flows for welcome, abandoned checkout or win-back emails.

  5. Review results

    Check widget conversions and email statistics, and A/B test popups or emails on paid plans.

Getsitecontrol FAQ

Is Getsitecontrol free?

Yes, Getsitecontrol has a free plan that includes popups, forms, unlimited contacts and 10,000 widget views per month. Email sends on the free plan cost $2.00 per 1,000 messages. Paid plans start at $19 per month for Pro, which adds A/B testing, branding removal and 100,000 monthly views.

What is Getsitecontrol used for?

Getsitecontrol is used to grow and email a contact list. Site owners add popups, signup forms, promo bars and surveys to capture visitors, then send newsletters and automated flows such as welcome, abandoned cart and post-purchase emails. Small stores, publishers and nonprofits use it as a low-cost alternative to running separate popup and email tools. Because contacts are unlimited on every plan, the subscription does not rise as the list grows.

Does Getsitecontrol integrate with Shopify?

Yes. Getsitecontrol has a Shopify app that imports customers and powers ecommerce automations such as abandoned checkout, post-purchase, review request and win-back emails. Popups and forms installed through the app can deliver discount codes, and contact data stays synced with the store.

How does Getsitecontrol pricing work?

Getsitecontrol charges a monthly subscription per site that sets your widget view limit, plus a separate fee for each 1,000 emails you send. The free plan has 10,000 views, Pro at $19 per month has 100,000 and Pro Max at $29 per month has unlimited views. Higher plans get cheaper email rates, and annual billing saves about a quarter.

Getsitecontrol vs Privy: what's the difference?

Both combine popups with email marketing for small stores. Privy is focused on ecommerce, adds SMS and prices its email plan by mailable contacts. Getsitecontrol works on any type of site, keeps contacts unlimited and charges per email sent instead, which can be cheaper for businesses that send less often.
