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.

Countdown timers create a visible deadline that encourages shoppers to complete their purchase before it expires. Choose fixed-date, daily recurring, or evergreen timers, and target by country, product tag, or collection. Generate animated GIF countdown timers for email campaigns alongside your storefront timers. Customize colors, fonts, borders, and layout to match your brand. Supports multiple languages.

Key points
  • Enable countdown timer on Home/Landing, Product & Cart page
  • Show as Top or Bottom bar (Sticky / Non-sticky)
  • Pre-designed premium templates
  • Mobile-friendly & fully responsive
  • Elegant top & bottom announcement bar timers
