Consentik Shopline: Brandmark

What is the brandmark?

The brandmark is a small “Powered by Consentik” credit — a short line of text next to the Consentik logo — that appears at the bottom of the consent surfaces Consentik renders on your storefront.
It is a clickable link that opens the Consentik landing page in a new tab. Visitors who want to know who handles consent on your store can follow it; everyone else sees a discreet 14×14 logo that inherits the text color of the surface it sits on, so it never clashes with your banner design.


Where the brandmark appears

The brandmark is rendered at the bottom of each card, below the action buttons:

  • Cookie banner — all layouts (full width, corner, center, sidebar)
  • Preferences popup — both modal and fullscreen
  • Privacy popup — the surface shoppers see when they reopen their consent record

It does not appear on the reopener button, the EU withdrawal surface, checkout extensions, or the accessibility widget.
When a banner is collapsed, the brandmark collapses with it and reappears when the card is expanded.


Showing or hiding the brandmark

Free plan

On the Free plan the brandmark is always shown on the storefront and cannot be turned off. This is part of what keeps the Free plan free.

Paid plans

Paid plans include the option to remove Consentik branding from your storefront:

  1. Open the Consentik app in your Shopline admin.
  2. Go to the Appearance tab.
  3. Find the Remove Consentik branding setting.
  4. Toggle it on to keep the brandmark, or off to hide it.
  5. Save. The change is pushed to your storefront immediately.

The live preview in the Appearance tab reflects the toggle before you save, so you can see exactly how the card will look either way.
On the Free plan this card is visible but locked, with an upgrade prompt.


What happens if I downgrade?

If you downgrade from a paid plan to Free, the brandmark comes back on your storefront automatically — even if you had switched it off. The setting itself is not destroyed: if you upgrade again, you can turn it back off from the Appearance tab.
There is no gap during the transition. Consentik re-enables the brandmark as part of processing the plan change, and the storefront data is forced to the “shown” state for any store without the entitlement, so a stale setting can never leave your storefront unbranded after a downgrade.


Frequently asked questions

Can I change the “Powered by” wording or swap the logo?
No. The wording is fixed and is not translated, so the credit reads identically across every storefront and language.
Does the brandmark slow my storefront down?
No. It is a single inline link with an inline SVG — no extra network request, no extra script.
Does the brandmark track my shoppers?
No. The link carries campaign parameters so Consentik can see how much traffic arrives from storefront brandmarks in aggregate, but nothing about the individual visitor is sent, and nothing happens unless someone clicks it.
I turned it off but it is still showing.
Check your plan first — the Free plan always shows the brandmark. If you are on a paid plan, reload the storefront with a hard refresh to clear the cached consent configuration. If it persists, contact support.
Does the brandmark appear on IAB TCF surfaces?
No. TCF banners and TCF preferences are paid-only surfaces and do not carry the brandmark.


Need help?

If the brandmark is not behaving as described above, reach out through the in-app chat in your Consentik admin and include your store domain and current plan.
