Create a Password page

What is Shopify Password page?

You can restrict visitor access to your online store by adding a password. Your password page is the landing page where you allow customers to enter your store with the password that you provide.

When your password page is active, search engines find and display only the password page of your online store. Other pages, such as product pages, are hidden and aren't displayed in search results.
