Why Gradient Marquee works on Motion
Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. For Motion specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: video testimonials and ugc-style proof, and Gradient Marquee fills that gap while inheriting Motion's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Video Testimonials next to Motion’s animated sections keeps the whole page moving without feeling chaotic.

How to add Gradient Marquee to Motion, step by step
- 1
Install Section Shop (free)
Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Motion setup until you add a section.
- 2
Find “Gradient Marquee” in the library
Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars category — or use search.
- 3
Click “Add to theme”
Section Shop writes the section into your Motion theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Motion uses for its own sections.
- 4
Open the Motion theme editor
In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Gradient Marquee” in the picker.
- 5
Customize and save
Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Motion font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.
Gradient Marquee on Motion — FAQ
Does Gradient Marquee work with the Motion theme?
Yes. Motion is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Gradient Marquee installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Motion's theme editor as “SShop:Gradient Marquee”, alongside the theme's own sections.
Will Gradient Marquee match Motion's design?
By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Motion's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.
Is Gradient Marquee free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?
Gradient Marquee is free, like every section in the 164-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Motion theme and keeps working.

More announcement bars for Motion
Pairs well with Gradient Marquee
Free Marquee 4
Announcement Bars
A scrolling band that can carry words, images, buttons and a live countdown together. The digits use tabular figures and the days field reserves the width it needs at render time, so a tick can never change the set width and jog the loop. The clock is worked out server-side first, so the numbers are right at first paint.

Free Marquee 3
Announcement Bars
A sale marquee with depth: a faint oversized ghost of the same words drifts behind at half speed, and the emblems bob gently in place. Words alternate filled and hollow, which is what gives the band its rhythm without needing a second colour. An emblem set to turn keeps turning, because spin and bob both animate the same property.

Free Marquee 2
Announcement Bars
A holographic drop band for launches and restocks. One glow palette retunes the background, the words and the emblems together, with a Custom option for your own colours. A slow band of light drifts across behind the words, and stops for anyone who asks for reduced motion.
