How it sells itself

Countdown timers, announcement bars, and popups create urgency so shoppers buy now. Run a flash sale timer on product or cart pages, or as a sticky top or bottom bar. Show single, multiple, or scrolling announcements for free shipping, coupons, and promotions. Add sales or regular popups to highlight an offer the moment visitors land. Schedule fixed end dates, recurring daily deals, or evergreen countdowns.

Show shoppers exactly when your sale or event ends. Add a countdown to a top or bottom bar, product pages, the cart and cart drawer, a floating corner card, or a full banner with your image. Choose a fixed end date, a daily cutoff like "order by 2 PM to ship today", or a per-visitor event. 76 designs and 44 templates, every color and font editable.
