Why/Use Cases

- Reduce unwanted traffic on your site from countries you don’t cater to.

Blocking users from specific countries on your Webflow site

This guide will help you block access to your site for users from a list of countries you specify.

Keep in mind that this isn’t a secure method of blocking access from a country (for that you should use something like Cloudflare). This isn’t meant to absolve you of legal compliance in that country, but rather for scenarios where you simply don’t cater to people from that country (e.g. an online store that doesn’t ship there).

To block users from certain countries from accessing your Webflow site, we’re going to use MemberScript #129 – Country Gating. Follow the link to get the code you’ll need to add to your site and watch a video tutorial on how to set everything up.

Setting it up

All you need to do is add the MemberScript #129 custom code to your entire site, before the closing body tag.

Once you’ve added the code, be sure to edit the slug of the page you want to redirect users to if they’re visiting from a blocked country – in the code it’s set as /access-denied and you just need to match it to your page (or just use the same slug we used in the code).

Additionally, you’ll want to edit the list of disallowed country codes to fit your needs.

That’s everything, you can now go ahead and test country blocking on your live site.
