Announcement bars that
actually stand out
Bannerfly adds a fully-styled announcement bar to your Shopify storefront — gradients, holiday patterns, country flags, custom fonts, and click-to-navigate. No code. Lives in your Theme Editor.
Everything you need in an announcement bar
Bannerfly ships with polished defaults and enough controls to match any store's brand — all from the Shopify Theme Editor.
Beautiful out-of-the-box
Gradient backgrounds, Google Fonts, text shadow, letter spacing — your bar looks polished before you change a single setting.
Total style control
Solid color, gradient, holiday patterns, country flags, or your own custom image. Every visual detail is configurable in the Theme Editor.
Holiday-ready backgrounds
11 holidays × light & dark variants — Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Black Friday, and more. Switch themes in seconds.
Country flag backgrounds
13 country flags built in as crisp CSS or SVG assets. Perfect for geo-targeted promotions or international store pages.
Clickable bar with link
Turn the entire bar into a CTA. Set a URL, choose same-tab or new-tab, and drive traffic exactly where you want it.
Zero app overhead
The bar runs as a native Shopify theme extension — no iframes, no external scripts, no impact on your store's performance score.

Frequently asked questions
- Will Bannerfly slow down my storefront?
- No. The bar is a Shopify theme app extension — a lightweight Liquid block with a tiny deferred JS file. There are no iframes and no third-party scripts loaded on page render.
- Can I use my own font?
- Yes. You can choose from 19 Google Fonts (Inter, Montserrat, Poppins, Playfair Display, and more) or stick with your theme's default font.
- Does it replace my theme's built-in announcement bar?
- Optionally. There is a "Hide default announcement bar" toggle in the block settings if you want to replace your theme bar entirely.
- Can I make the bar clickable?
- Yes. Enable the click action setting, paste your URL, and choose whether it opens in the same tab or a new tab. The whole bar becomes a link.
- How do I change the background?
- Open the Theme Editor, select the Bannerfly block, and choose a background style: solid color, gradient (with angle control), holiday pattern, country flag, or a custom image URL.
- Is it free?
- Bannerfly is free to install. Check the Shopify App Store listing for the current plan details.
