Is my email capture hurting or helping immediate conversion?

I'm running email capture popups on my e-commerce store, but I'm uncertain about their actual impact on conversion rates. Sometimes I feel like these popups might be annoying customers and potentially driving them away before they complete a purchase. I want to understand whether these email capture strategies are genuinely helping my business or creating unnecessary friction in the customer journey. How can I evaluate the true effectiveness of my email capture approach and optimize it for better conversion rates?

TL;DR - Quick Answer

Shoppable social media (Instagram Shopping, TikTok Shop, Pinterest) converts at 1-3% from the social feed - lower than on-site but with zero additional traffic cost. The ROI depends on whether your audience shops natively in social apps.

Should I Enable Shoppable Social Features for Conversion?

Shoppable social features convert purchases within the social platform without requiring a separate website visit. For impulse-purchase categories (fashion, beauty, home decor, food), reducing the steps from discovery to purchase is the highest-leverage conversion tactic available through social channels.
