ixigo Maximizes Push Notification Opt-ins with Bottom Sheet

Context

As soon as users open the Ixigo app, they’re shown a clean, branded bottomsheet explaining the benefits of enabling push notifications - like flight deals, real-time travel updates, and personalized reminders.

Instead of triggering the default OS permission prompt upfront, Ixigo pre-warms users with a familiar in-app component, improving consent likelihood. The design is distraction-free, matches the app’s visual style, and makes the value prop clear before users are asked to take action.

Why This Works

Push opt-in rates drop when users don’t understand why they should allow notifications.
By using a custom UI layer to communicate the value first, Ixigo earns user trust and improves conversion on the OS prompt that follows.

This is a great example of:

• Educating before asking
• Using native-feeling elements (like bottomsheets)
• Aligning timing with user intent (on launch)

It’s a scalable pattern for improving push opt-ins across any app vertical — travel, commerce, or finance.
