How Do I Implement an Age Verification Popup?

Start from the Age Verification Popup template. It's a full-screen Capture that asks "Are you over the age of 21?" with a Yes and a No button. Visitors who tap No are sent to another web address.

  1. Choose the template and change the age and wording to suit your market.
  2. Set the address the No button sends people to.
  3. On the Targeting tab, check the rules. The template shows to new visitors. To show it only on age-restricted pages, add the Current URL rule (under Acquisition) with those page addresses.
  4. Install the Capture on your site.

The template uses Business Captures features. See Capture rules for the targeting options.

Caution

This is a self-declared age gate. Visitors tap a button, and nothing checks their ID or date of birth. Some countries need real age verification for alcohol, tobacco or adult content, so check your local rules. This isn't legal advice.

Running a giveaway instead? Turn on Minimum Age in your Competition. We add a date of birth field, and anyone under your minimum can't enter.
