How it sells itself

Most countdown bars show the same message to everyone. GeoTime shows each shopper a bar made for them. It reads their country and fills in the country name and flag automatically, then translates the whole message into their language, with RTL support for Arabic. Add a shipping-goal progress bar that updates in their own currency. See views, clicks and click-through rate for every country.

Create bars for promotions, shipping messages, discounts, and store updates. Build announcement bars, countdown timers, tickers, coupon bars, scrolling logos, image carousels, and free shipping bars, marquee, then customize their content, design, timing, and display rules for different parts of your store.

Key points
  • Auto-detects each shopper's country and fills in the country name and flag
  • Auto-translates the bar into the shopper's own language, including Arabic RTL
  • Progress bar to your shipping goal, shown in the shopper's own currency
  • Views, clicks and click-through rate for every bar, broken down by country
  • Engaging Marquee Bar: Easily install and set up to grab attention quickly.
  • Announcement Bar: Unleash Creativity with Images, Icons, GIFs, and Customization
  • Multi-Language: Specify the language for which the ticker will be displayed
  • Animated Marquee: Enhance with scrolling text, icons, images, and gifs
