What is AgeVerify Shield?

AgeVerify Shield is a Shopify app that lets merchants verify customer age before they can view or purchase age-restricted products. It is specifically designed for the European market and fully compliant with GDPR and youth-protection regulations.

Who Needs Age Verification?

If you sell any of the following, you likely need age verification:

🍷 Alcohol (wine, beer, spirits)
🚬 Tobacco & e-cigarettes / vapes
💊 Certain medications & supplements
🔪 Knives, weapons & tactical gear
🎰 Gambling & betting products

Note: Legal requirements vary by country and region. AgeVerify Shield helps you comply but does not replace legal advice.

How It Works

Install the app from the Shopify App Store
Enable the app embed in your theme
Create rules that define which products or pages require verification
Customize the look and feel of the verification modal
Visitors are prompted to verify their age before accessing protected content

The verification modal is injected automatically – no manual code edits required.
