Date of Birth, Age Gating and Translating Date Fields

Edited

Within the Builder there is a unique element for Date and another for Date of Birth. The Date element is a response type and the Date of Birth element can be found under Form Elements. Both element types have very similar design options where you can customize the order of the date fields and how they will visually look to the end user.

Both of these fields have options for restricting users by date of birth, as well as the ability to translate the fields to non-English languages. Read on to find out more about how to leverage these fields in your campaigns.

Step-by-Step Guide

Age Gating

  1. Add a Date of Birth field from the "Form Fields" section of the "Add Element" tab.

  2. Click on the DOB field and check "Age Gating."

  3. Input the cutoff age limit. You can also determine whether users are directed to a different screen or receive an error message if they input a date below this limit. Users can also check the "Do not collect leads under the age limit" box to discard submissions from underage users.

Translating Date Dropdowns

  1. Click on the Date of Birth or general Date form field, depending on which you're using in your campaign.

  2. Scroll on the lefthand panel to the portion reading "Date Format."

  1. Use the dropdown to select the desired language. Jebbit will automatically update the abbreviations to those used in the selected language and organize the Month, Date and Year fields in the order they typically appear in those languages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: If you enable Age Gating, can users who fall below the Age Limit still take the experience?
A: You can direct users who fall below Age Limits to a new screen. If you choose to do this, Jebbit will continue to capture responses, but we will obfuscate all information captured on the Lead screen for users under the age limit.
