Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureCheckMate helps merchants stay legally compliant by adding consent checkboxes and age verification to their store. It protects three key points: the cart page (theme block), the cart drawer (app embed), and checkout (Plus only, with tamper-proof server-side validation). Each component is enabled separately in the theme editor. No code required.
ConsentGuard adds a terms and conditions checkbox to your cart page, so customers agree to your terms before checkout. Add more blocks for final sale items, liability waivers, custom orders, or the withdrawal waiver EU sellers of digital downloads use. Every acceptance is saved with the order number, time and the exact text shown, so you can download proof for any order if a customer disputes a purchase.
- 1-click enable for terms & conditions checkbox on your cart page
- Age verification popup with configurable thresholds and session memory
- Blocks express checkout buttons until terms are accepted
- Product and collection rules for targeted compliance requirements
- Consent checkboxes, banners, and acknowledgments at checkout
- Tamper-proof audit log with order-linked consent records
- Display rules by product type and date range
- CSV export of consent history for compliance review
