Promotional Animation

Bring your storefront to life with motion and atmosphere.

The Promotional Animation feature lets you add visual effects like falling images or icons. For example, a gentle snowfall over your homepage for Christmas or confetti during a sale. It’s a simple way to make your store feel fun or unique.

You can choose from predefined particle types provided by Accentuate, upload your own custom images or even generate directly through Shopify. Each particle can also include text overlays, allowing you to combine visuals with short promotional messages.

You’re in full control of how the animation behaves with particle movement, direction, and speed. You can set a start and end date, making it easy to schedule animations for seasonal campaigns or special events.
