Is the countdown widget free?
Yes, 100% free with no hidden fees. You can create as many countdown pages as you need — for different products, campaigns or events — without paying anything. It is not a free trial, it is genuinely free.
Can I embed the countdown on my website or landing page?
You can link directly to your countdown page from any button, banner or text on your site. Visitors land on a clean, fully branded page with a live-updating timer. Many users drop the countdown link into email newsletters, social bios or pre-launch landing pages to drive urgency and keep their audience engaged before a big release.
Will the countdown widget update in real time?
Yes. The timer refreshes every second in the browser with no page reload needed. Every visitor who opens your link sees the exact same live timer ticking down. This makes it especially effective for flash sales and limited-time offers where precision matters.
Can I create a countdown page for a product launch?
Absolutely — this is one of the most popular use cases. Add your product name, a teaser description, a preview image or a short video, then share the countdown link across your email list, social media and other channels. A simple but effective way to build anticipation before your launch day.
Does the countdown widget work on mobile devices?
Yes. Every countdown page is fully responsive and looks great on smartphones, tablets and desktops. Since most people will open your link on their phone, the timer is optimised to load quickly and display clearly on small screens without any extra setup needed.
