Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureEasily add age verification to your online store! The app automatically installs on your store (no need to mess with code or wait for a developer to help you!) and adds a professional age verification screen that can appear when the customer enters your website and before they checkout.
Stores selling alcohol, tobacco, vape, cannabis, or other age-restricted goods often must confirm a visitor's age before allowing them to browse or buy. SunGate adds a configurable age gate that asks the visitor to enter a date of birth or answer a yes/no prompt. Underage visitors can be redirected away or blocked at checkout. Merchants set the minimum age, gate text, and display style from the app admin.
- Verify age just before checkout by disabling checkout button or showing a popup
- Add age verification status to order details for record keeping
- Only show the age check screen where you need it using custom page rules
- Verify age using simple yes/no buttons, birthday entry, or with a checkbox
- Date-of-birth entry with auto age calculation, or yes/no confirmation
- Popup, full-page, or inline banner display modes
- Block checkout for unverified visitors; logged-in customers skip the gate
- Custom logo upload with light, dark, and custom theme presets
