Tip: Enter your store password in the countdown block to reveal an Enter site button when the timer ends. It unlocks the store automatically for waiting customers.
Collecting email and SMS (Klaviyo)
By default the Get early access toggle reveals a built-in email field. To collect email and SMS, paste your Klaviyo form embed into the Email / SMS form embed (Klaviyo) setting under Email capture. When it is set, it replaces the built-in field inside that panel. Turn on Show loading spinner for the embed so a spinner shows until the Klaviyo form finishes loading.
Custom Liquid block
Drop any HTML or Liquid onto the gate. Most often a Klaviyo form embed for an email or SMS signup, but it works for any widget or analytics snippet. Turn on Show a loading spinner until it appears so a spinner holds the space until the embed loads (Klaviyo and similar forms render a moment after the page).
Custom Liquid / HTML
Setting.
Show a loading spinner until it appears
Klaviyo and similar embeds load a moment after the page; the spinner shows until they do.
Important: The store password itself is set in Online Store → Preferences → Password protection. The gate above is what visitors see while protection is on.
