Adding contextual overlays to explain premium features increased Mobbin's paid subscribers by 9%. The new design used progressive disclosure, showing an overlay with visuals, feature descriptions, and an upgrade button when users hovered over “Pro” labels. This approach lets users understand the value of premium content without leaving their current task. During the test, 21% of visitors interacted with the overlay, showing strong interest in learning about Pro features at key moments.
