Custom Auto Redirects

Custom Auto Redirects automatically send visitors to a different URL based on their geolocation, without showing any widget or prompt.

Redirect List

Manage your auto-redirect rules from the main dashboard.

Adding an Auto-Redirect

Go to Geolocation Flow Dashboard → Custom Auto Redirects
Click Add redirect
Select the target locations — choose countries or continents
Set the geo logic:
- Inside — redirect visitors who are in the selected locations
- Outside — redirect visitors who are not in the selected locations
Enter the destination URL
Save your changes

Redirect Options

Option	Description
Domain redirection	Keep the same page path when switching domains (e.g., `/products/shirt` stays the same)
Block visitors	Redirect to `about:blank` instead of a URL (blocks access)
Status	Toggle between Active and Draft
Order	Drag to reorder — first matching rule wins

Page Targeting (Pro)

Pro plan only. Control which pages trigger or skip auto-redirects:

Trigger mode — only redirect on selected page templates
Skip mode — redirect on all pages except selected templates
Available templates: index, product, collection, page, blog, article, cart, 404, search, account pages

Free plan: Up to 1 auto-redirect. Basic plan and above: Unlimited auto-redirects.

Auto-Redirect Settings

Redirect Once

When enabled (default), visitors are only redirected once per session or per cookie window, not on every page load.

Session — redirect once per browser session (resets when the browser closes)
Cookies — redirect once per cookie window (resets after 7 days)

Bot Detection

Geolocation Flow automatically detects bots and crawlers to prevent them from being redirected. The default detection pattern covers common bots:

bot|adsbot|googlebot|crawler|spider|robot|crawling|slurp

You can customize this regex pattern in the settings to add or remove bot user-agent strings.

Redirect Delay (Basic+)

Basic plan and above. Set a delay in seconds before the redirect fires. This gives visitors a moment to see the page before being redirected. Set to 0 for instant redirect.

Forward URL Query Params (Basic+)

Basic plan and above. When enabled, the current page’s URL query parameters are forwarded to the redirect destination. This preserves tracking codes, referral parameters, and other query strings across the redirect.

Global Domain Redirection (Basic+)

Basic plan and above. When enabled, redirects preserve the current page path when switching to a different domain.

Loop Prevention

Geolocation Flow appends ?xgar=1 to redirect URLs by default to prevent infinite redirect loops. You can disable this parameter in settings if needed.
