FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Liquid tags with ClickTimer in Customer.io?

Yes. Create your timer in ClickTimer, then paste the HTML code into Customer.io. You can wrap it with Liquid conditionals or use Customer.io attributes to personalize surrounding content. The timer HTML itself remains static but updates dynamically on each email open.

Will timers work in behavioral workflows?

Absolutely. ClickTimer is perfect for Customer.io's event-triggered and behavioral workflows. Set your deadline once, and the timer counts down in real-time regardless of when each user enters the workflow or opens the email.

Do I need to add code to every email?

Only once per campaign or workflow. Paste the HTML code into an HTML block (not image block) in your Customer.io email editor. The same code works across all sends.
