How it works
State the unlock
A specific, immediate benefit is more persuasive than a vague 'upgrade now'.
Decide on dismissability
Hard blocks risk feeling punitive outside of true seat or usage limits.

Frequently asked questions
Should prompts ever be non-dismissable?
Usually only for seat limits — usage nudges are better as dismissable, less punitive prompts.
How many upgrade prompts is too many?
If users complain about interruptions, you've likely over-prompted — track dismissal rate as a signal.
Should free users see pricing in the prompt?
Yes — hiding pricing behind the prompt usually reduces trust and conversion.
