Museum Guard reduces cart abandonment by prompting shoppers before they exit to external links.

Customers often exit through social links, partner sites, or even your own subdomains—abandoning their carts in the process. Museum Guard is a smart exit popup for your store. When a customer with items in their cart clicks an external link, Museum Guard displays a customizable message and link to checkout. Deploy multiple guards tied to specific links, each with unique messaging to reengage shoppers before they leave. Built for major US museums—available to all.
