Campaign Monitor is known for beautiful email design and is popular among agencies and design-focused marketing teams. If you care about how your emails look — and you should — adding a countdown timer that matches your brand aesthetic is essential for time-sensitive campaigns.
This guide walks through embedding a Tickvio timer in Campaign Monitor emails and journeys.
A free Tickvio account and a Campaign Monitor account. Setup takes under two minutes.
Log in to Tickvio, create a timer, and choose your type: fixed date for campaign sends, evergreen for automated journeys, or recurring for weekly/monthly promotions. With 28+ design styles, custom colours, and font options, you can match Campaign Monitor’s design-forward aesthetic precisely. Set your expiry state and copy the HTML embed code.
Create or edit an email campaign in Campaign Monitor’s drag-and-drop builder.
Drag a Custom HTML block (or "Code" block) into your template where the timer should appear. Position it below your headline or hero image, above the main CTA.
Click the block, paste the Tickvio embed code, and save. The timer renders as a live animated countdown.
Preview across devices and send a test. Check our inbox support guide for rendering details.
Campaign Monitor’s "Journey" feature powers automated email flows. Add evergreen timers to welcome journeys ("Your 15% off expires in 48 hours"), re-engagement flows, and post-purchase sequences.
