How does AskGov's CSAT score work?
CSAT (Customer Satisfaction) is a feedback system that measures how satisfied users are with your help centre.
On AskGov, CSAT is collected through a short feedback popup that appears automatically on your help centre.
How CSAT is collected
Citizens are shown a popup asking them to rate their experience. The system controls when and how often the popup appears.

When the popup appears
The popup appears 60 seconds after a user visits your help centre.
If the user submits feedback:
After submitting a rating, the popup will not appear again for 2 weeks
After 2 weeks, the user may see the popup again
If the user closes the popup without submitting:
The popup will appear again in their next browser session
This includes refreshing the page, opening the help centre in a new tab, returning to the site later
How to understand your CSAT score
Your CSAT score reflects the ratings submitted by citizens through the popup.
A higher score means users generally found your help content useful.
A lower score may indicate content gaps, unclear instructions, or unmet expectations.
CSAT should be reviewed alongside:
Citizen feedback comments
Common enquiries received
Content quality and freshness
