How Do I Add Age Verification in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:07 pm

Adding age verification to your WooCommerce store is a great way to ensure that only adults are able to purchase your products. There are a few different ways that you can go about doing this, and we’ll go over a few of the most popular methods below.

One of the simplest ways to add age verification to your WooCommerce store is to use a plugin. There are a few different plugins that you can choose from, but we recommend using the Age Verification for WooCommerce plugin. This plugin is free to download and use, and it’s pretty easy to setup. Once you’ve installed and activated the plugin, you’ll need to go to the settings page and configure it to your liking. You can choose what type of verification you want to use (birthday or age), and you can also choose whether or not you want to display a message to users who fail the verification process.

Another popular method for adding age verification to WooCommerce is by using a theme that has this functionality built-in. A quick Google search will reveal a few different themes that offer this feature, but one of our favorites is the Shop Isle theme. This theme is free to download and use, and it includes a built-in age verification popup that appears when users first visit your site. The popup requires users to enter their date of birth before they can proceed, and it’s a great way to ensure that only adults are able to access your store.

If you don’t want to use a plugin or theme, then you can always add age verification to your WooCommerce store manually. This method is a bit more technical, but it’s not too difficult if you follow our tutorial. Basically, you’ll need to add some code snippets to your site’s header and functions file.

Once you’ve added the code, you’ll need to create a new page in WordPress for your age verification popup. From there, you can use any type of popup plugin or service to display the popup on your site.
