Description
The addon Countdown Popup adds a countdown timer to popups of Popup Builder, displaying days, hours, minutes, and seconds remaining until the date and time set in the popup panel. Designed for those promoting time-limited offers, launches, pre-sales, webinars, or event openings, it generates a sense of urgency without requiring manual scripts or external widgets.

Serves promotions, launches, webinars, pre-sales, and events with a set date.
Who Should Use Countdown Popup
- Those running limited-time promotions and needing to communicate the final deadline visibly on all pages.

How To Download Countdown Popup
The Countdown Popup is available for download here on Ultrapack. After saving the .zip file, install it via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the package and activate it with the Popup Builder already installed on the site. From there, the timer becomes available within the popup editor of the base plugin.
For those already using Popup Builder in acquisition and promotion campaigns, this extension fills a common gap: the timer. Instead of embedding countdown scripts via custom HTML or third-party widgets, the count now lives in the same popup, with the same display logic, timing rules, and responsiveness as the main plugin.
