Comparison
Consentico vs Consentik
Consentik is a well-reviewed low-cost Shopify cookie banner with a loyal user base. Consentico is the newer alternative with a bigger free tier, analytics on every plan, and deeper Google Consent Mode v2 wiring — including the June 2026 ad_storage gating change that Consentik hadn't updated for at time of writing.
Where Consentico wins
- Bigger, more useful free tier — 5,000 banner views/month with full Pro features (geo-targeting, script blocking, GCM v2, consent log).
- Analytics and geo-targeting on Pro ($7.99/mo); Consentik gates analytics behind higher tiers.
- Deeper Google Consent Mode v2 wiring — maps Shopify Customer Privacy API categories to all four v2 signals with correct post-June 2026 ad_storage semantics.
- Three-layer script blocking (createElement override + MutationObserver + type=text/plain fallback).
- Direct Puppeteer cookie scan; Consentik's scanner is shallower and doesn't support password-protected dev stores.
- Accessible defaults (ARIA, keyboard navigation) on every plan.
Where Consentik wins
- 4.9★ across ~265 App Store reviews — well-loved by its user base.
- Slightly cheaper entry paid tier ($6.99/mo vs Consentico's $7.99/mo).
- Established Shopify-native app with several years of iteration.
- Simple, no-frills setup that ships sensible defaults.
- Good multi-language support for the banner UI.
