How to create a Coming Soon page in Shopify?

Shopify makes it easy to create a basic Coming soon page, perfect for keeping your site hidden from the public while building or preparing for launch.

A Coming soon page is a pre-launch landing page designed to generate excitement and anticipation for an upcoming product or store launch. It informs potential customers about your brand and when it will go live. This page is typically password-protected, ensuring no access to other parts of the website until the store is officially launched.

Step 1: Enable password protection

• Log in to your Shopify admin dashboard.

• Navigate to Online Store > Preferences.

• Scroll down to the Password protection section.

• Check the box next to Restrict access to visitors with the password.

• In the Password field, enter the password that you want to add to your online store and restrict access with. Don't use the same password that you use to log in to your Shopify admin. In the Message to your visitors field, enter the message that you want to display to visitors on the password page. If you don't want to display a message, then leave this field blank.

• Save your changes.

Note: This process ensures that visitors can only access the Coming Soon page with a password, restricting access to the rest of your store.

Step 2: Navigate to the theme editor to customize your Coming soon page

• From your Shopify admin dashboard, go to Online Store and click on Themes. In the Current theme section, click the “Customize” button.

• In the theme editor, click into the dropdown menu of pages at the top, select Password.

Step 3: Customize sections on your Coming soon page.

The Coming Soon page can include various sections to engage visitors and provide essential information. Below are 3 sections of Coming soon page:

1. Password header section

2. Email signup banner section

3. Password footer section
