I Blocked a Country, but Shopify Still Shows Visitors From It. Is NoSpy Working?

Yes. Shopify records a visit server-side as soon as the browser connects, before NoSpy has a chance to process the visitor.

The process works like this:

  1. Shopify records the visit.
  2. NoSpy processes the visitor.
  3. NoSpy blocks the visitor if they match your rules.

The visitor is stopped by NoSpy and cannot continue through your store, but Shopify has already recorded the visit.

To see what NoSpy actually did, go to NoSpy > Visitor Analytics > Blocked.
