How it sells itself

Keep shoppers informed about holiday closures, shipping delays and reopening dates. Create announcements in Shopify admin, schedule them in your store timezone and let them expire automatically. Match your storefront with custom colors and a responsive, dismissible bar. Enable the app embed in your theme editor without editing code.

Wave Bar puts an announcement bar across the top of your storefront in about a minute. Show one message, or write up to three and they rotate on a timer you set. Add a link, pick your colours and fonts, and choose whether shoppers can close it. Add a countdown when the deadline is the point.

Key points
  • Schedule notices in your store timezone with automatic start and expiry
  • Match your brand with color pickers and a live announcement preview
  • Enable a responsive, dismissible bar in your theme editor without code
  • Keep drafts, pause announcements and choose which eligible notice appears first
  • One fixed message, or up to three that rotate on a timer you control
  • Countdown to a date, or a repeating timer that rolls over on its own
  • Separate text sizes for phones and desktop, so it reads well on both
