The Sale Countdown Timer app creates urgency by displaying a countdown timer for ongoing sales or promotions. This helps to encourage quick purchasing decisions, turning browsers into buyers.
The app does not modify products to create sale prices. You need to add sale prices in BigCommerce Admin, and the app should only show for products on sale.
Why it works:
A ticking timer creates a sense of urgency, pushing shoppers to act before they miss out. This proven psychological trigger can significantly boost sales and reduce cart abandonment.
