A Countdown timer helps you add a sense of urgency to your customers so that they feel motivated to complete their orders.

&#x20;When customers are aware that the products they’re interested in are getting sold out quickly or the discounted price is active for a limited time only, they are more likely to make a purchase.

## Customize your Countdown timer section

Each Countdown timer contains the following blocks:

* Heading: add a Heading to the timer and define its heading tag
* Countdown: set the End time, Style, and Labels of the timer.
