Promo bar with a discount code visitors can copy
Show your discount code in a bar at the top of your site. Visitors click the code to copy it, then paste it at checkout. No coding needed.
Free plan available. No credit card required.
Are shoppers leaving to search for your code?
You emailed a discount code, but the shopper on your site does not have the email open. So they leave to find it, or go to a coupon site and come back with a code that does not work.
A promo bar puts the code on the page they are already looking at, with a one-click copy.
What does a promo bar do?
Shows the code on every page
Visitors see the code wherever they land, not just on the homepage.
Copies the code in one click
Clicking the code copies it to the clipboard, ready to paste at checkout.
Adds a deadline
Add a live countdown to the end of the offer inside the same bar.
Ends on time
Set an end date and the bar comes down when the code expires.
Targets pages
Show a code only on the collection or product pages it applies to.
How does the click-to-copy code work?
The bar shows your message, the label "Use code:" and the code itself, with an optional button and close icon. When a visitor clicks the code, it is copied to their clipboard and flashes green for a second so they know it worked.
The copy uses the browser clipboard, which works in modern browsers on sites served over HTTPS.
The bar shows the code. It does not create the discount. Create the code in your store first (for example in Shopify Discounts or WooCommerce Coupons), then type the same code into the bar.
Promo bar or coupon popup?
Many stores use both: a popup to grow the email list, and a promo bar for the public sale code.
| Promo bar | Coupon popup | |
|---|---|---|
| Blocks the page | No | Yes, until closed |
| When visitors see it | As soon as the page loads, on every page | After a trigger, such as time on page or exit intent |
| Collects emails | No | Often |
| Best for | A code you want everyone to use | Trading a code for an email address |
Add a deadline with a countdown
Turn on the countdown, set the end date and time zone, and the bar shows the days, hours, minutes and seconds left on the offer. Pair it with the end date in the schedule, and the bar comes down when the countdown reaches zero.
The countdown runs to one fixed date. It does not restart for each visitor.
Promo bar message examples
Keep the message short and put the value first:
- 15% off your first order. Use code: WELCOME15
- Summer sale: 20% off everything. Use code: SUMMER20
- Free shipping this weekend only. Use code: SHIPFREE
- Last day: buy one, get one 50% off. Use code: BOGO50

Frequently asked questions
A promo bar is an announcement bar that promotes an offer, usually with a discount code. It sits at the top or bottom of the page so every visitor sees it without a popup.
Create the discount in your store, build a promo bar in EaseNotify with the same code, and paste the EaseNotify script tag into your site once.
No. It shows the code and lets visitors copy it in one click. The shopper pastes the code at checkout, and your store applies the discount.
Yes. Turn on the countdown and set the end date and time zone. The timer counts down to that date inside the bar.
Yes. Make one promo bar per code and use page targeting on each. Several bars need a plan with more than one widget; Basic includes 5.
Not if you turn on "remember dismiss". The bar stays closed for that visitor on later visits.
