Redirection Links in Countdown Timers

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What Are Redirection Links?

Redirection ( dynamic ) links change automatically based on whether the countdown timer is active or expired.

  • Active Timer: Users are sent to the live offer or event page.
  • Expired Timer: Users are sent to a different page ( like an "Offer Expired" or "Waitlist" page ).

Why Use Them?

  • Automatic Process: No need to manually update links when offers end.
  • Seamless User Experience: Ensures users always go to the right page.
  • Time-Saving: It’s all automated.

Where to Access Redirection Links:

  1. Go to the Marketing > Countdown Timers


  2. Create Your Countdown Timer: Here is our support article going over how to create a countdown timer: How to Set up a Countdown Timer

    1. Click the three dots on your timer to copy the link.

      Email Builder:

    2. Go to Settings in the Email Builder.

    3. Click Copy Redirection Link.



  • Funnels/ Websites/ Stores: In the page that has the timer element, the redirection to expired page is already configured. It is essentially working like a minute timer where the timer would not restart on every refresh and would redirect to the expiry page URL when the timer expires.

How to Create a Timer with Redirection:

  1. Marketing > Countdown Timer.
  2. Set the Active Link ( where users go before the timer expires ).

  3. Set the Expired Link ( where users go after the timer expires ).


  4. Save the timer after selecting the timer properties, such as when you want the timer to expire.
    1. Now your timer will automatically send users to the correct link, whether the offer is active or expired.
