How Do I Gate...?

BitBadges provides flexible ways to gate (restrict access to) various types of content and utilities. Explore the claim builder and the rest of this documentation for more information.
Even if you create a badge, list, or other item, you will eventually create a badge-gated claim (separate), for example, to gate your app or service.
The simplest way to gate a static URL or content is to use BitBadges' built-in URL gating feature. This can be found in the rewards tab when creating a claim. Users will need to successfully complete the claim process to view the URL. This is perfect for:
Private Discord invites
Google Doc/Drive links
File downloads
Software downloads
Exclusive website access
Event registration links
And more!
Pro Tip: For additional security, consider using one-time-use URLs, dynamic variables, or implementing additional verification on your destination website. The gated URL can also be a Sign In with BitBadges URL with eventual redirect to your service to provide seamless authentication.
You can also configure your claim to auto implement utility for you with no-code. For example, assign a Discord role to users who successfully claim. This is a powerful tool because then you can create gated channels and offer further gated experiences however you see fit!
Use the Forms plugin, custom webhooks, and custom plugins to collect user inputs (including attestations), social identifiers, and more. This allows you to maintain or create a list of users who you want to offer your gated utility too (e.g. send invites to the emails you collect).
Use the BitBadges WordPress plugin to create sites gated by Sign In with BitBadges. Specify your claim you want to check in the settings, and you instantly have a multi-chain site gated by any criteria you want.
Use Sign In with BitBadges to implement your own gated website or any digital service. Authenticate and check claim successes to make your website gated by anything you want.
Use the QR code feature of Sign In with BitBadges to gate any in-person service. Users generate a QR code and present it at authentication time.
Configure your claim to send a post-success webhook to a Zapier Zap. This allows you to implement rewards from over 7000+ apps in no-code. This is great for services like newsletters, custom services, and much more! If you need a more programmatic solution, you can collect this same data via .
