A popup plan is the worst decision ever.
The popups will be blocked by all major browsers most of the time because of the aggressive popup blocking. Remember the 2000's when pop up were abused by all sort of evil ads and notifications. They've been blocked ever since.
- icebraining 9y agoPopups in direct response to clicks still mostly work, as far as I know.
- adventured 9y ago> The popups will be blocked by all major browsers most of the time That's incorrect. They default to blocking site instigated pop-ups, not user instigated pop-ups. Some versions of the Facebook & Twitter login systems for example rely on user instigated pop-ups. PayPal wouldn't use this approach if you were right. They'd have a 0% use result. They have billions of dollars in transaction volume at stake, they're not going with an approach that guarantees a 0% outcome.

They could have not thought of it at all, or tested it on some platforms were it worked while some others don't. Billions dollars companies are not immune to bugs and typo. I have seen some by my own eyes.
