Add a countdown
Last updated: September 8, 2026 · 1 min read
Display time remaining until a target date.
A countdown is a display block. Expiration does not itself close the catalog or manage a promotion.
Follow these steps
- 1
Set the target
PropertiesTarget Date
Insert a countdown from Elements > Interaction. Choose a date/time, enter a title, and set title visibility. The date input uses your device’s local time zone.
- 2
Choose appearance
PropertiesStyle
Choose boxes, flip, inline, or minimal styling. Toggle days, hours, minutes, and seconds separately, along with their labels.
- 3
Set colors and type
PropertiesColors
Set block/box background, number, label, and separator colors, then number and label sizes. The title should make the countdown’s purpose clear.
- 4
Set expiration display
PropertiesExpiration
Configure number animation and the expiration message. Check the target time and expired-state text in preview. This is separate from the catalog’s access-expiration settings.
Check your result
Check the result in preview, then verify the reader experience in the published version.
