Urgency - Order Soon (Countdown Timer)

The Urgency - Order Soon (Countdown Timer) Nudge shows a live countdown to any date you set. It is ideal for sales, promotions, or limited-time events.

Unlike the Dispatch Deadline nudge, this countdown is not tied to delivery or dispatch schedules.

How it works:

  • Set the target date for the countdown (e.g., sale ends Friday at 23:59).
  • Nudgify automatically displays a live countdown on the product page.
  • That’s it—no need to configure delivery or dispatch settings.

Example Setup

  • Sale ends Friday at 23:59
  • Visitors see the countdown updating in real time on the product page

When to use

  • Flash sales
  • Limited-time promotions
  • Countdown to product launches or special offers

Timezone & Daylight Savings

  • The countdown adjusts automatically to the visitor’s timezone.
  • Daylight Savings are handled automatically.

Adding the Nudge

  1. Go to the Pop-Ups page and click Add Nudge.
  2. Select Urgency - Order Soon (Countdown Timer) from the Nudge Library.
  3. Set the target date for your countdown.
