There’s a simple psychological principle: when time is limited, people are more likely to take action, such as making a purchase. This is why countdown timers are so effective — they create urgency and prompt customers to act quickly before time runs out.

At Amasty, we’ve been helping businesses with Ecwid solutions for a while now, and we wanted to make it easy for Ecwid users to add a countdown timer to their stores. That’s why we created Countdown Timer Pro — an intuitive countdown app that integrates seamlessly with your Ecwid store. With this app, you can quickly create, customize, preview, and publish countdown timers.

You don’t have to wait for a specific promotion to start a countdown timer. With a personalized countdown for each customer, the countdown clock appears with every new session, engaging visitors from their very first visit to your store. This ensures that every customer sees your promotion, no matter when they land on your website — whether it's a different season, month, or year.

Customization Options

Fully customize your countdown widget to match your brand’s look and feel. You can adjust the text — headings, subheadings, and more — along with controlling the font, size, formatting, and color. Add a button or make the entire timer clickable to redirect users to a specific page, such as your Sale collection, terms and conditions, or a landing page.
