Add an animated number counter (Webflow)

What is an animated number counter?

An animated counter is the effect that animates the numbers when a user visits your website and reaches the section. This animation will bring a lively style to your website, making it more dynamic and visually appealing to your users.

Below, you can see a GIF of an animated counter that appears on the page when users first access the relevant section of your website.

How to add the effect to a Webflow site?

Not entirely possible with 100% no-code yet, but we’re sharing the JavaScript with you 😉 Follow this quick guide in just 3 simple steps.

Step 1: Add the code to your page

Copy and paste the following code into the "Before <!-- fs-richtext-ignore --></body> tag" of the relevant page in your Webflow project.

<script defer src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/waypoints/4.0.0/jquery.waypoints.min.js"></script>
<script defer src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/jquery.counterup@2.1.0/jquery.counterup.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function( $ ) {
  $('.counterup').counterUp({
    delay: 100, // the delay time in ms
    time: 2000 // the speed time in ms
  });
});
</script>

Step 2: Create a CSS class

Create a CSS class: counterup and assign it to the HTML element - text block or paragraph - in your project.

Step 3: Publish your site

Publish your site and test the effect live! (The JavaScript code only works when the site is published)
