Full-screen welcome mats for maximum visibility
A welcome mat takes over the screen for a moment when a visitor lands, giving your offer maximum visibility before they scroll past it.
Why it converts
Highest visibility of any format
A full-screen takeover is impossible to miss on page load.
Great for first-time visitors
Trigger it only for new sessions so returning visitors are not interrupted again.
One clear call to action
The full-screen format keeps the visitor focused on a single offer or email capture.
Dismiss-and-continue
Visitors close it and land on the same page — nothing is lost.
How to set it up in OptinYeti
Choose a welcome mat template
Start from a full-screen layout in the template library.
Set the entry trigger
Show it immediately on landing, or after a short delay.
Limit the frequency
Cap it to once per visitor so it does not show on every repeat visit.
FAQ
Will this annoy returning visitors?
Not if you set a frequency cap — most campaigns show a welcome mat once per visitor.
Can visitors get back to the page?
Yes — closing the mat returns them to the same page, nothing is lost.
Is this the same as a popup?
It is a popup format, but full-screen instead of a smaller modal or corner box.
