How can I schedule sales pop-ups in advance?

Shopify Apps

I’m looking for a Sales Pop-up App that allows the user the ability to schedule multiple concurring or sequentially scheduled pop-up’s so that this doesn’t have to be done manually. For example, our site has a Daily Deal pop-up that appears when a customer lands on any page. Each day we promote a different item or combination of items in conjunction with a countdown clock in the pop-up. Problem is, when the clock strikes 12 there isn’t a pop-up for a new item to replace the previous days item when expires at midnight unless I’m up and can creat a new one. As with Facebook ad’s, I want the ability to schedule Sales Pop-up’s days in advance of them running so I don’t have to stay awake each night until midnight and do this manually. It’s counter productive. Any insight those in the community can provide is greatly appreciated, as I’ve yet to come across an app I like that can do this.

Hi @mikebodo , so what you’d like is a scheduled for popups on a certain date?

Yes. I want to be able to schedule Shopify Sales Pop-Up’s that start running at midnight, let’s say and stop running when I set an end date and time.

It should not be a big problem to build something like that with the new app extensions using some scheduling webhooks.

I am an app developer and at the moment I am building 2 different apps but I also have a newsletter where I collect merchants’ feature requests or app requests and I deliver them to App developers so that they can build them. I am going to add this one

It’s crazy that none of the Pop-Up app developers out there have figured out how to do this, when there are a number of Shopify sales apps in existence that allow the user to schedule multiple sales that start and end at varying dates and times or multiple sales that run and end concurrently. Thus, the road map exists. It simply takes someone to take the secret sauce from one area in an app and apply it to another. Thus, it shouldn’t be difficult to do.

Not sure if you figured this out but have you tried Privy, thats the only pop I found to schedule on and off pretty easily and nice design options.
