    MieneVdb I believe the personalization of the messages like Email, SMS and Push happens first and then the audience and content is passed on to a MTA to deploy in batches.
    If we use the liquid with now then the start date will be same for all the customers who will receive the message.

    I would suggest using Moveable Link to add countdown to your push which will API calls for dynamic time for each user.

Hi MieneVdb 

There are some great liquid use case examples of countdowns here for reference:
Liquid Use Case Library (braze.com)

I'm tagging AllanHeo as he will likely have a better grip on this but if you are sending this as an email my guess is the liquid renders when you hit send, not when the message is actually sent, so there could be a difference in times. If you are assigning 'now' as the current time, I'd imagine it would work fine in a campaign in-app message that appears in real-time, it's email I'm unsure about.
