Increase Orders Before the Shipping Cutoff

Use a countdown timer to show your final shipping date, create urgency, and capture more last-minute sales.

Why it works

Many customers delay holiday shopping and risk missing delivery deadlines. By showing a clear countdown to your shipping cutoff, you turn hesitation into action.

Shoppers feel the urgency to complete their purchase now, while you secure more orders and maximize revenue before Christmas.

How to implement it

1. Set the Countdown Timer

Adjust the timer to match your shipping cutoff. Choose whether to display seconds and decide what happens when the timer reaches zero.

2. Push Content

Decide if the Sleekbar should push your site content down or float above it. We recommend pushing the content down so both your top menu and Sleekbar stay visible without overlapping.

3. Page-Level Targeting

Choose the pages where the Sleekbar should appear, such as product pages, cart, or checkout.
