Boost Urgency & Drive More Sales with STKY’s New Countdown Timer Feature

Shopify merchants, it’s time to turn up the urgency. We’re excited to introduce a powerful new feature inside your STKY app: the Countdown Timer—designed to help you convert more visitors into buyers by leveraging one of ecommerce’s most effective psychological triggers: scarcity.

‍

⏳ What is the STKY Countdown Timer?

This new feature allows you to display a real-time countdown timer directly on your Sticky Add to Cart Bar, creating a sense of urgency for shoppers to take action fast.

Whether you're running flash sales, limited-time promos, or just want to push faster decisions at checkout, the countdown timer is your secret weapon.

“Urgency is one of the most powerful tools in ecommerce. When customers feel they might miss out, they’re more likely to act.”

💡 Why Urgency Works (and Why You Should Use It)

Shoppers often hesitate—scrolling, browsing, and comparing. By using the countdown timer, you add a subtle but effective push toward buying now, not later.

Here’s how it helps:

🔥 Reduces cart abandonment by encouraging quicker decisions
🚀 Increases conversion rates during time-sensitive offers
🧠 Triggers FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) for high-impact campaigns
🎯 Works seamlessly with your sticky bar, so it’s always visible during scroll

⚙️ How It Works

Setting it up is simple:
