Floating bars
Floating bars and announcement bars that don't get in the way
The quietest way to promote an offer: always visible, never blocking the page.
A floating bar — also called a notification bar, announcement bar, sticky bar or 'hello bar' — is a thin strip pinned to the top or bottom of the page. With Tafsee Popup you can use it for announcements, free-shipping messages, countdowns or a one-field email signup, and show it only where it matters.
Tafsee Popup
What you get
Top or bottom, sticky or static
Pin the bar while visitors scroll, or let it sit at the top of the page.
Announce anything
Sales, new collections, delivery updates, holiday opening hours or a link to your latest guide.
One-field email capture
Add an email field to the bar and send leads to your email tool or CRM.
Countdown inside the bar
Combine the bar with a countdown for sale deadlines and delivery cut-offs.
Correct in Arabic
RTL layouts keep icons, buttons and close controls on the right side for Arabic pages.
Why use a bar instead of a popup?
Popups interrupt; bars don't. A floating bar keeps your message on screen while visitors keep reading and shopping, which makes it a good default for information everyone should see — shipping thresholds, store-wide offers, service notices.
Because it never covers the content, a bar is also a comfortable choice on mobile and on pages that receive visitors from search.
Use a popup when you need attention for a moment — an exit-intent offer, for example — and a bar for the message that should stay in view.
Floating bar ideas
- Free shipping threshold: 'Free delivery across the UAE on orders over AED 150'.
- Sale announcement with a countdown timer.
- Seasonal hours: Ramadan opening times or Eid delivery schedules.
- Newsletter signup with a single email field.
- Cross-links: 'New: our guide to choosing the right oud' linking to a blog post.
- Campaign-specific messages shown only to visitors from a given UTM source.
Launch a floating bar in three steps
- Design — choose the floating-bar layout, pick top or bottom, write one short line and one button. Use 'match my brand' so it looks native to your theme.
- Show when — show it on all pages or only some, on mobile, desktop or both, and to new or returning visitors.
- Publish — install the one-line script once (Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, Next.js, HTML or Google Tag Manager) and go live.
