Support
Questions, a theme where a bar doesn't show, or a feature you need? Email support@stickermint.com with your store's .myshopify.com address and we'll reply within one business day.
Getting started
- Install Mint Urgency from the Shopify App Store and open it from your Shopify admin.
- Click New announcement bar (or Free-shipping bar), write your messages and click Save. Saving publishes it to your store straight away.
- On the app's home page click Open app embeds. Your theme editor opens on App embeds — switch on Urgency bars and click Save.
- For countdown timers (Pro), click Add timer block: the Countdown timer block is added to your product page. Drag it near the buy buttons and save.
Free-shipping bar
- Set the threshold to the same amount as your free-shipping rate (Settings → Shipping and delivery).
- The bar compares it with the cart total after discounts, and updates when items are added or removed — including from cart drawers and quick-add buttons.
- Shoppers paying in another currency see the threshold converted at Shopify's exchange rate. If your market has its own fixed free-shipping amount, add it under Other currencies. If a currency can't be converted, the bar hides rather than show a wrong amount.
Countdown timers
- Fixed date: counts down to the date and time your offer really ends, then hides (or shows your "ended" message).
- Daily cutoff: counts down to your order cutoff on the days you dispatch, e.g. "Order within 3h 12m to ship today". After the cutoff it counts to the next working day; add holidays under Closed dates.
- All times use your store's timezone (Settings → General), and daylight saving is handled automatically.
- Timers never restart for new visitors — every shopper sees the same deadline.
A bar or timer isn't showing?
- Check the Urgency bars app embed is switched on in your live theme (Online Store → Themes → Customize → App embeds).
- Check it's Active, and on Pro that its schedule and page targeting include now and this page.
- If you closed a bar yourself while testing, it stays closed in that browser until you change the bar — try a private window.
- On the Free plan only your first announcement bar and first free-shipping bar are shown, and timers need Pro.
- Only one announcement bar per position and one free-shipping bar show on a page: the first matching one in your list.
Billing
Pro is billed through Shopify at $4.99/month after a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime from the app's Plans page or by uninstalling the app — you won't be charged again. If you cancel, your bars and timers are kept; extra bars, timers, schedules, targeting and custom colours switch off.
