Questions people ask
Is relaybell cheaper than PushEngage?
During early access relaybell is free with every feature included and no per-subscriber charge. Compare against PushEngage’s current plans on their site, since pricing changes — but there’s no cost to try relaybell.
Can I move my subscribers from PushEngage?
Web push subscriptions can’t be exported between providers — they’re tied to the browser and the service that created them. You add relaybell’s snippet and visitors opt in again (one click). You can run both side by side during the switch.
Does relaybell support WooCommerce?
Yes — the relaybell WordPress plugin fires purchase, cart, back-in-stock and price-drop events automatically, so cart-recovery and restock automations work out of the box.
