Goal: set up token-gated access on a Shopify store. The original app (Flooz) no longer supports Shopify, and Manifold appeared incompatible with the store’s theme and lacked support.
Theme and compatibility: The store uses Colorblock 8.0.0, which is a Shopify-supported theme. Alternatives suggested include Shopthru and TacoNFT.
Current progress: TacoNFT is under test; the gate was created but the app isn’t recognizing the contract address. The app’s support team is responsive.
Key guidance: Double-check that the correct smart contract address (not a wallet address) is being used. Additional resources on token-gating for retailers were shared.
Use case: NFT holders receive products/discounts and access to collaborations. The store will launch with a jewelry piece representing Autism and aims to employ women and people with disabilities with flexible work.
Status/outcome: No final app decision yet; testing continues with TacoNFT and possibly Shopthru. The discussion remains open, with intent to update the thread after resolving the contract address issue. No single “best for all themes” app identified; compatibility and support are key considerations.
Hi,
I need to set-up a tokengate access but I am struggling with the apps.
I had installed Flooz but they do no loger offer shopify support. I have tried Manifold but it seems not suitabe for my theme and I don’t know how to customize it and it seems they have no customer assistance.
Does anyone have any experience or suggestions?
thanks!
Hi, @niftynaples .
Rio here from the Shopify Community team. Token gating is an exciting feature and we’re excited to see what’s in store for the future!
If you’re setting up token-gating, you can check out several token-gating apps we have.
You mentioned that Manifold wasn’t suitable for your theme. What theme are you using? Also, is this a new business where you can switch to a Shopify-supported theme, or you would like to continue using your theme?
You can try Shopthru, or TacoNFT as alternative apps to see if they work for you.
Hello Rio, thanks for your feedback.
The theme I am using is Colorblock 8.0.0 and I would like to keep using it.
I will check the other two apps you have suggested, thank you very much for your help and I will keep the tread updated for the other people benefit, it this may help 
Ale
Hey, @niftynaples .
Colorblock is one of our supported themes! Can you let me know what issue you were having exactly with setting it up?
I’d love to know about your use case as well and see if I can give you any tips or resources on throwing a token-gated event!
Hey, @niftynaples .
Hope you were able to get that all set up! I wanted to share our article on taken-gating for retailers.
Feel free to ask any questions about token gating, I love the space and may be able to help with some suggestions for your use case!
Hello Rio,
Sorry for the late reply.
Do you meant that Manfold was supporting Coloblock?
I am now testing TacoNFT and I will let you know how I am getting on, in case this could help other users.
Up to know, I managed to create the gate but I am struggling as it seems not recgnising the contract address so I have reached the customer service that seems to be very active.
Thanks again for your support!
No problem at all! If the previous app wasn’t working and TacoNFT is, you can use that app instead. I’ve found their team to be super helpful as well. Make sure that you’re copying the correct smart contract address and not just the Ethereum wallet address.
What type of project were you doing with token-gating?
I am building a store where NFT holders get products/discounts and access
to collabs. The store will host a jewel representing Autism (as a launch
product) then local productions. My goal is to build a digital business
that will employee women and people coping with disability, offering the
opportunity to work with flexible times and places.
I am a mum of a special needs child and working is very hard so I am
building “what I need” because my condition is similar to many other
families.
