Consentful

Quick start

Put a compliant cookie consent banner on your site in about five minutes — install, activate your free key, publish.

Every Consentful setup follows the same four steps, whatever you build with.

Get a license key (free)

Create a free account and copy your license key from the dashboard. It looks like CNSNT-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. The Free plan covers one site forever — no card needed.

Activate

Open Consentful and paste your key on the first screen. Your site's domain is added to your license automatically on most platforms — you can also add domains in the dashboard.

Design and publish

Adjust the banner if you like — the defaults are already GDPR-safe — then click Publish. On some platforms you also publish your site afterwards; the platform guide tells you when.

Testing first? Preview and staging addresses such as *.framer.website, *.webflow.io, *.myshopify.com and localhost show the full banner for free and never use one of your sites. Platform addresses still need to be activated with a key (a free one works).

Check it's working

Open your live site in a private browser window. You should see the banner. Click Reject all, reload, and it should stay hidden — and your analytics tags should not fire. See Troubleshooting if the banner doesn't appear.
