Why am I seeing a notice about age verification? Follow
We’re currently required to comply with new age-verification laws in certain locations. Because the rules are still changing and not always clear, we’ve temporarily limited access in certain regions while we work on solutions that are both compliant and respectful of your privacy.
How this affects you depends on where you’re located.
For users in certain U.S. states
Applies to: Tennessee, Louisiana, Missouri, Alabama, Kansas, Oklahoma, Indiana, Florida, Kentucky, and Texas, South Dakota, Georgia, Texas

For users in the United Kingdom (UK)
If you’re located in the UK, you may be redirected to RedGIFs Lite due to recent legislation around age verification.

Who can log in right now?

You won’t be able to access the full version of RedGIFs from the UK at this time. You can still browse RedGIFs Lite, which is open to all.
If you’re not in the UK but are seeing this message or being redirected to RedGIFs Lite, please reach out to support@redgifs.com.
If you’re NOT in these locations but still see a restriction
If you’re outside the listed U.S. states and the UK but still see an age-verification or location-based restriction, it’s usually because:
You’re using a VPN, proxy, or privacy tool that sends your traffic through one of the restricted locations.
Your internet provider is based in, or routes traffic through, one of those regions.
Certain browser extensions or add-ons interfere with how your location or IP is detected.
If this happens:
Check if you’re accessing RedGIFs directly via redgifs.com or being redirected from another site (like Reddit).
If you’re using a VPN or proxy, try turning it off and reloading the page.
Try disabling any privacy-related browser extensions/add-ons temporarily and refresh the site.
Visit a service like myip.com to see where your IP address appears to be located.
If you still see the restriction after trying these steps, please contact Support at support@redgifs.com.
