What Velo does
on BigCommerce.

Create one script in Script Manager on the Essential category so it loads before consent is given. That placement is what lets Velo set the denied default ahead of your other scripts. Or install through Google Tag Manager and keep everything in the container.

Region rules and recordsChoose how the banner behaves by visitor location: opt in consent for the EU and UK, opt out where US state laws call for it. Accept and Reject carry equal weight, choices are per category, and every choice is saved to your consent records.
Google Consent Mode v2Velo sets the Consent Mode defaults before your other tags run, when the snippet sits above them or the tag fires on Consent Initialization. Google tags then adjust to each visitor's choice. Google may model some conversions when its eligibility and traffic conditions are met. Modelling is not guaranteed.
Made for BigCommerceIt touches only Script Manager. One script of at most 30KB that does not block the page from rendering, with no app to install and no plugin to keep updated.

How it goes live
on BigCommerce.

Three steps. Most installs take a few minutes when you can already publish changes to the site.

    Create the script

    In BigCommerce, open Script Manager and add the Velo snippet as an Essential script in the head. Or add the Velo template in Google Tag Manager.

    Denied by default, banner up

    Velo sets the Google Consent Mode v2 defaults before your other tags run, denied where your region settings ask for opt in, then shows the banner. Google tags adjust to the choice and tags you gate on Velo's consent event wait for it. Every choice is saved to your consent records.

    Verify, then publish

    Check that the consent signals change in Tag Assistant when you accept and when you reject, then publish. Run the same check again whenever you change your tags or banner settings.

BigCommerce questions,
answered.

What teams putting a banner on BigCommerce ask first.

Why does the script category matter in BigCommerce?

Script Manager sorts scripts into categories, and only Essential scripts load before the visitor consents. Velo must run first to set the denied default and show the banner, which is why the guide has you file it under Essential. It manages the consent for everything else.

Does this replace BigCommerce's own cookie consent tracking?

BigCommerce's built in consent banner covers basic notice. Velo replaces it with category level choices, region rules, an audit log and Consent Mode v2, the parts your ad platforms actually read.

How does it affect my Google Ads reporting?

You see fewer observed conversions from visitors who decline, because Google Ads tags adjust to each choice through Consent Mode v2. In advanced mode those visitors can still send cookieless pings, and Google may model some of the missing conversions when its eligibility and traffic conditions are met. That is not guaranteed.

Do I need a developer for the install?

Usually not. Both paths are settings work: one script in Script Manager, or one tag in Google Tag Manager. The install guide covers each step with screenshots.
