How it sells itself

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.

Store Access Guard は、ストアへのアクセス状況を確認し、必要に応じてIPアドレスや国単位でアクセス制限を行えるアプリです。管理画面からアクセスログを確認し、ブロック対象IPの追加・削除、国別ブロック、ブロック時に表示するページ文言の設定ができます。複雑なセキュリティ設定ではなく、ストア運営者が日常的に確認・管理しやすいシンプルな構成にしています。

Key points
  • Hide products. Hide collections. Hide prices. Hide variant options. Hide pages.
  • Reveal locked areas based on customer tags, passcodes, customer location, etc.
  • We use simple concepts—locks and keys—so you can work easily and creatively.
  • Locksmith is developer friendly: use Liquid or our API for custom functionality.
  • アクセスログを確認して、不審なアクセス元や国を把握できます。
  • 特定のIPアドレスを登録して、ストアへのアクセスを制限できます。
  • 国別ブロックとカスタムブロックページを管理できます。
