Embed Count-Up Clock on BigCommerce

Create a Count-Up Clock app for BigCommerce on Common Ninja

First, create a BigCommerce Count-Up Clock app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Count-Up Clock and enter the Editor.

Save the Count-Up Clock app

When you're done creating the Count-Up Clock app, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

Copy the Count-Up Clock Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Count-Up Clock app to your BigCommerce store, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the app embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your BigCommerce store.

Paste the code to your BigCommerce website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your BigCommerce store editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the BigCommerce’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Count-Up Clock Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Count-Up Clock app on your BigCommerce store.

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Count-Up Clock app on your BigCommerce app. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your BigCommerce store’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Count-Up Clock app to your BigCommerce store. You can do this by putting it straight into your BigCommerce store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Count Up Clock widget when you want to emphasize how long something has been running or how much time has passed since a meaningful starting point. This could be company founding, launch date, last incident, or ongoing campaigns. A live counter that ticks upward creates a sense of continuity and reliability. Visitors see that your project is not theoretical but has a real history behind it. This works for nonprofits, SaaS reliability, safety records, and milestone celebrations. The widget turns time into a visible achievement that supports trust and storytelling without demanding extra attention once configured.
