PushPad is a Web Push Notifications Service.

PushPad is a Web Push Notifications Service. Some recent technologies enable websites to send push notifications to users (if they give their consent) even when they are not on the website. Users don't need to install any app or plugin, since everything relies on browser built-in features (W3C Push API for Chrome and Firefox, Apple Push Notification service for Safari).

Pushpad offers two different ways for collecting subscriptions to push notifications. Depending on your needs you may want to use one or the other.

Pushpad Express is the easiest way to create a channel to send push notifications to your users. When you create a new project you get a link. Share it with your users to let them subscribe to your notifications. When they click the link Pushpad automatically subscribes them to push notifications and sends them back to your website.

Go for Pushpad Pro if you are looking for a Backend as a Service which is perfectly integrated into your application and absolutely transparent to the end users.
