Customize Countdown Timer Labels in Sparkforge

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

Custom Countdown Timer Labels replace the default Days/Hours/Minutes/Seconds text with whatever wording fits your campaign. Locale-aware defaults pre-fill on creation.

Custom Countdown Timer Labels replace the default Days/Hours/Minutes/Seconds text under each timer segment. Sparkforge auto-detects sub-account locale and pre-fills labels in the matching language.

What You Get

  • Localize instantly: defaults match the sub-account's language settings.
  • Match brand voice: swap "Hours" for "Hrs" or "Heures" to keep copy on-brand.
  • Increase clarity: use campaign-specific phrasing like "Shopping Days Left."
  • Reduce design work: no separate graphics per language.
  • Boost conversions: familiar wording engages more readers.

Default Labels

Countdown Timer uses your account locale to set starter labels automatically. Leave them as-is or rewrite for slang, abbreviations, or fully custom copy.

How to Change Countdown Timer Labels

  1. Navigate to Marketing → Countdown Timer.
  2. Open an existing timer or click + New to create one.
  3. In the left sidebar, open the Styling tab.
  4. Under Labels, set each label to Visible or Hidden.
  5. Type custom text for each segment (Day, Hour, Minute, Second).
  6. Click Save.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are label changes retroactive?
Yes. Updating label text refreshes every live instance of that timer.
Can I use different labels for email vs funnels?
Each timer holds one label set. Duplicate the timer if you need distinct phrasing per channel.
Does auto-translation work for every language?
Defaults follow the sub-account language, but dialect or nuance edits may still need a manual pass.
Will changing labels affect dynamic links or expiry actions?
No. Label edits only change on-screen text. Redirects and expiry logic stay the same.
