What is the promo strip section?
A Promo strip is an excellent way to share special messages with your customers or draw attention to a promotion, helping to drive sales and increase conversion rates.
Versatile and quick to set up, the Promo strip will appear on all templates when added to the Header Group or Footer Group, helping to reduce repetitive set up tasks.
