LocksmithUse case · Regions
Show the right catalog in each region.
Some products can only be sold in some places. Locksmith can lock a product or collection by where the visitor is, by which Shopify Markets domain they're on, or by IP address.
The setup
A Canada-only collection.
- Lock
The Canada collection, hidden from lists for visitors outside Canada.
- Key
One condition: the visitor is visiting from Canada.
- Everyone else
A message saying the collection isn't available in their region, with a link to the main catalog.
Options
Three ways to tell where a visitor is.
Visitor location
Country, region, or city, based on the visitor's IP address using MaxMind GeoIP data.
Location keys →Shopify Markets
If your markets use separate domains or subdomains, use the store domain condition. Otherwise, use a custom Liquid condition with the visitor's locale or localization.
Markets guide →IP address
Open a lock only on a specific network, such as your office, a showroom, or an event.
IP address keys →Location from an IP address is approximate, and visitors using a VPN may appear somewhere else. If you need to enforce where an order ships, use Shopify's shipping settings too. For delivery areas, see offering different variants by postal code.
Ideas
Where regional locks help.
- Products licensed or certified for sale in only some countries
- A local-delivery collection shown only to nearby shoppers
- Region-specific promotions or pages for each market
- An in-store kiosk or event catalog that only works on the venue's network
