How to implement content-gate
From the drag and drop video funnel builder, click on the Add Interactive Element button on the video you want to edit. This will load the video into the drag and drop interactive video builder and timeline editor.
From the list of interactivity items by the left menu panel, click on the interactivity item for the action you want viewers to take. This depends on your marketing objective.
For instance, if you want viewers to subscribe to a newsletter in order to continue watching the rest of the video, click on the Optin Form interactivity item.
There are 2 toggle switches required to turn the interactivity item into a Gate
First: The Video Pause toggle switch
Toggle on the switch under the Video Pause when the interactive element appears.
Second: The Add Close Button toggle switch
Leave this switch OFF to make sure viewers don't get to skip or close the interactivity item when it appears in the video.
The optin form has now been turned into an Optin-Gate
Complete the rest of the settings as desired.
