Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureGateKeeper controls who sees what in your store. Every rule is three parts: a Lock (product, collection, page, URL, blog post, checkout or your whole storefront), a Key (logged-in customers, customer tags, emails, domains, a passcode, a secret link or country rules) and an Action (hide the product, show a placeholder, hide the price or Add to Cart, or show a login wall).
Password protect pages, hide prices and products, sell retail and wholesale from one store, run VIP drops, or build members-only areas. Locksmith locks any page, product, collection, blog, price, or your whole Online Store, then lets in only visitors who meet your conditions: customer tags, sign-in, email, passwords, secret links, location, purchases, Klaviyo or Mailchimp lists, dates, and more.
