To sum it up​

As you can see from our case studies, Europe converts.

Do you always use only push? Do you have direct link cases?

Do you always use only push? Do you have direct link cases?

We recommend pop\push as the most effective ones. You can promote direct links, but it'll be a lower conversion rate and depends on your groups and contacts.
