Age control PrestaShop module

Age control module for PrestaShop

The age control module is a mandatory solution for online stores selling products covered by age restrictions. Thanks to it, a legible popup (modal) is displayed when the user first enters the website with a request to confirm the age of majority. This is a simple way to increase the compliance of the store with legal requirements and protect the brand.

How does the module work?

After entering the website, the customer sees the age confirmation window. The user's choice is saved in the cookie for a certain number of days, so that the message does not appear on each subsequent visit. The consent storage time can be easily set in the module configuration.

The most important functions

• Automatic popup display on the first customer visit.
• Remembering the user's choice in the cookie for a selected period (e.g. 30 days).
• The ability to turn the module on or off with one click.
• Configurable message content with multi-language support.
• Support for bootstrap 5 compatible modals.
• Safe operation for crawlers (Google, Bing and other bots).

SEO and accessibility for search engine robots

The module was prepared for SEO: it does not block crawlers and does not hinder the indexing of the site by search engine robots. This means that the store can meet the age control requirements without negatively affecting visibility on Google or Bing.

Why is it worth implementing age control?

The implementation of the age control module helps to limit access to content and products intended only for adults. It is an important element of responsible online sales and building customer trust.

If you run a store with 18+ products, this module will allow you to quickly run effective and easy-to-use age verification.
