The countdown offer section is perfect to promote new or discounted products by adding urgency with the countdown timer.

The section settings are as follows:

* style (more details [here](https://bigstart.gitbook.io/marble-documentation/common-settings#style))
* outer spacing (more details [here](https://bigstart.gitbook.io/marble-documentation/common-settings#outer-spacing))
* image (used for desktop)
* image - mobile
* layout (vertical alignment of the content: top, center, bottom)
* show content background (to enable/disable the background around the content in order to make it more readable)
* content fields for: heading, subheading
* expiration date -- the format is "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM". The time/date should be set based on your store timezon set in Settings -> Store Details -> Time zone and units of measurement.
* link (CTA) details
* resources -- products/collection that can be shown within the section

#### Resources

You can use the section without adding any resources. It might be used with just an image and the counter.
