Squarespace has no native countdown timer, which leaves sales, launches and event pages with static text where the urgency should be. This plugin from SQPlugins adds a real-time countdown to any page, running to a specific date or a fixed duration for continuous promotions. The detail that lifts it above an embedded widget is what happens at zero: you can hide the timer, redirect visitors to another page, replace it with custom text, or open a lightbox (with the vendor's Lightbox Anything plugin), so an expired flash sale sends people to the next offer instead of showing a dead clock. Styling runs through the built-in style and code generator with no coding required. $19 as a one-time payment for a single site, or $99 for an agency licence covering unlimited client sites.

The end actions are what separate it from a generic embedded widget. When the clock hits zero you choose what happens next: hide the timer, redirect visitors to another page, replace it with custom text, add text before or after the countdown, or open a lightbox (this last one requires the vendor's Lightbox Anything plugin). That means an expired flash sale can automatically send visitors to the next offer rather than sitting there with a dead timer. Because styling runs through SQPlugins' built-in style and code generator, the fonts, colours and sizing match your template rather than looking like a third-party embed.
Installation is the standard SQPlugins pattern, a copy and paste snippet with a step-by-step guide and no coding required. Developer Dmytro Kyselov sells it as a one-time payment with no subscription: $19 for a solo licence covering a single production site, or $99 for an agency licence covering unlimited websites including client builds, with support direct from the developer and active maintenance (currently version 1.3.0).
