Flash sale split-flap countdown template

Split-flap cards on a burgundy background: every second the top flap folds over the gap and reveals the new digit. In a flash sale, where all that matters is that time is visibly passing, that flip says more than any color could.

Flash sale split-flap countdown GIF: burgundy cards with white digits, showing hours, minutes and seconds
Real GIF rendered by the Kauntodaun engine. 540 × 133 px · 29.9 KB 15-second sample loop.

It shows hours, minutes and seconds. The dark red of the background also tints the cards, so the whole timer reads as part of the offer without falling back on pure red, which gets tiring in a long email.

It suits brands with a retro look or physical products: records, coffee machines, bikes, watches. Use it in the email that opens the offer and in the last-hours reminder with the same URL, because each open works out the time remaining.

The loop lasts 15 seconds. Opening the email again fetches a new GIF with the correct time, so nobody sees an old number. When it reaches zero it shows "Offer ended".

Split-flap is a Pro style: you can try it in the preview without paying, but to create the timer and send it you need the Pro plan. Paste it as HTML into a Klaviyo block, an HTML block in ActiveCampaign's Email Designer or HubSpot's HTML module.
