Why merchants use it

Every promotion, above the fold

Shoppers who see your offer in the first second convert more often. That is the whole job of this app.

⏱️

Urgency that converts

Countdown bars with evergreen mode create real deadlines for every visitor, not just the first one.

🎨

Matches your brand

Colors, fonts, buttons, background images, corner radius — tune every detail from the app, live-previewed.

🎯

Right message, right shopper

Show a shipping bar to desktop users, a discount to returning customers, and a launch teaser only on collections.

📱

Mobile-first rendering

Bars adapt to small screens without shifting your layout or hurting Core Web Vitals.

📅

Schedule and forget

Queue a whole season of campaigns with start and end dates. Bars turn themselves on and off.

🧩

Custom HTML & Liquid

Need something bespoke? Drop in your own markup and Liquid variables for full control.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do I need to edit my theme code?
No. The app installs as an app embed block in Online Store 2.0 themes. Toggle it on and the bar appears — uninstalling leaves nothing behind.
Will it slow my store down?
The storefront script is under 10 KB and loads asynchronously, so it never blocks rendering or shifts layout.
What is an evergreen countdown?
A timer that starts fresh for each visitor — for example, 24 hours from their first visit — instead of counting down to one shared date.
Can I run several bars at once?
Yes. On the Pro plan you can run unlimited bars and control which pages, devices, and customer segments each one appears for.
How do I get support?
Email us from the app or through our contact page. We reply within one business day, usually faster.
