Opt-In refers to the way the push permission is asked from the users on your webpage. MoEngage provides 3 push opt-in mechanisms which can be configured Dashboard --> Settings --> App --> Push under Notification Opt-in Configuration:

1-Click Opt-In

Users are shown a HTML "soft-ask" which gauges user preference and proceeds to show the main browser permission upon allowed.

3. Self Handled Opt-in

An Advanced setting where you can selectively show the Browser Opt-in on specific pages or after certain actions. You have to call our function Moengage.call_web_push() from your script to show the Push permission. Click here for more details about self-handled opt-ins
