# Overview

[GeoIP Country Redirect](https://apps.shopify.com/geoip-country-redirect) app helps you to manage traffic on your multiple stores.

The GeoIP Country Redirect app by SpiceGems is designed to enhance the shopping experience by directing customers to the appropriate regional store based on their Country location (IP Address).&#x20;

By implementing the GeoIP Country Redirect app, store owners can offer a personalized shopping experience, directing customers to the most relevant version of their store based on geo location, thereby improving engagement and conversion rates.

## Key Features:

* **Country Redirect:** Redirect users based on their Country Location and IP address.
* **Country Blocker**: Restrict access to the initial store from any specified country.
* **GeoIP Switcher** – (Shopify Market Switcher & Manual Switcher): Provides customers with the option to manually switch to their native store, URL or preferred language and currency, enhancing user convenience.
* GeoMarket Redirect: Integrates with Shopify Markets and redirects users with flexibility to choose an option in the popup or force redirect to their native market.
* **Rule-Based Redirection:** configure multiple rules with different redirect types (popup or auto-redirect)&#x20;
* **Automatic Redirection:** Force redirects customers to different stores according to their IP address.
* **Display Popup/Banner:** Offers a customizable popup or banner, allowing users to choose whether they wish to be redirected, thereby enhancing user experience.
* **Popup Editor**: offers customizing popup templates including content, styling etc.&#x20;
* **URL Mapping:** Redirect users from an old destination URL to a specific new destination URL.
* **UTM parameter forwarding** - Provide the option to forward already existing custom parameters (tracking ads parameters) to the destination URL&#x20;
* **Whitelist IPs and URLs** - Prevent the rule from triggering for particular IP addresses or on specific whitelisted pages in the app.
* **Google Bot Exclusion:** Ensures that search engine bots are not redirected, allowing all versions of the store to be properly indexed by Google, which is crucial for search engine optimization.
