Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureAge Verification Gate adds an age confirmation screen to your storefront so visitors must confirm they meet your minimum age before browsing. Merchants selling alcohol, tobacco, vaping, or other age-restricted goods can use it to support legal compliance. You set the minimum age, choose how visitors confirm it, and decide what happens if someone does not meet it, either blocking access or redirecting them elsewhere.
ProofAge helps merchants sell age-restricted products on Shopify with a storefront age gate. Merchants can turn the gate on in the theme, apply it to all products or selected collections, and choose the verification settings that fit their store. This helps stores check shopper age before purchase while keeping setup and day-to-day management simple.
