About this plugin
VelvetGate is a luxury-style age verification plugin for WordPress that restricts access to your website using a beautiful, luxury-inspired full-screen age gate.
It requires visitors to enter their date of birth before accessing content, making it ideal for websites that require age restrictions or compliance-based access control.
Unlike basic age popups, VelvetGate focuses on design quality, user experience, and full visual customization.
