FAQ

Cordon — frequently asked questions.

What is Cordon on Shopify?
Cordon, officially listed on the Shopify App Store as Cordon: VPN & Country Blocker, is a Shopify app in the Geolocation category. Cordon blocks unwanted traffic before it reaches your store. Pick countries to block, add allow rules for trusted IPs, and enable detection of VPNs, proxies, Tor exits, datacenter networks, bots, and headless scrapers. Decisions happen in under 50 milliseconds per visit, and if our service is ever slow Cordon fails open so real customers shop normally. Visitor IPs are SHA-256 hashed with a daily-rotating salt before storage, so historical logs become permanently irreversible after 24 hours.
How much does Cordon cost?
Cordon offers a free plan and 3 paid plans starting at $9/month and going up to $49/month. The free plan includes Up to 1,000 visitors per month, Country blocking, 200+ countries, IP and CIDR range rules (up to 5), and Bot and headless browser detection. The paid plans unlock advanced features beyond what's available on the free tier.
Is Cordon free?
Yes — Cordon offers a free plan alongside paid options. The free plan includes Up to 1,000 visitors per month, Country blocking, 200+ countries, and IP and CIDR range rules (up to 5). Paid plans start at $9/month for advanced features.
When was Cordon launched?

Is Cordon Built for Shopify?
