What it is
A sale with a visible deadline: four tiles count down to the moment the prices go back up, and a button takes the shopper to the sale.
When to use it
- A real end date exists: a flash sale, a launch window, a seasonal offer.
- You want urgency without a discount code or a signup in the way.
Why it works
A clock is the one piece of urgency copy nobody has to believe: it is simply true, and it keeps being true every second the shopper looks at it.
How to build it in the app
Create pop-up → template Sale Countdown → select the countdown → Counts down to: your end date and time (or The end of this pop-up's schedule, so the deadline and the pop-up end together) → Publish. (Basic plan and up.) Prefer Minutes after each visitor first sees it for an evergreen offer - it is remembered per browser.
Watch out for
This template closes the pop-up when the clock reaches zero, so a date in the past means it never shows - the Pop-ups list flags it. Say what ends ("30% off ends"), not just that something ends.
