    • End date and time – Set the exact moment when the timer expires.
    • Text after the timer ends – Define what message should appear when the timer reaches zero.
    • Link under the timer – Add a clickable URL for recipients to take action.

Timer Style Customization

You can personalize the countdown timer to match the look and feel of your email. Available customization options include:

  • Timer size – Choose between Small (S), Medium (M), or Large (L).
  • Color mode – Select either dark-on-light or light-on-dark contrast.
  • Timer background – Adjust the background color to fit your email’s theme.
