Setting up Cookie Consent and Consent Mode v2 on the Khoroshop website

Budget: 18000 UAH Deadline: 5 days

Good day!

Look, there’s a nuance here - I would recommend Cookiebot as a more reliable option for the EU, as it works well with Google Consent Mode v2 and GTM. Cookie Bar can be considered a cheaper route, but only after verification, because the free banner often needs adjustments to actually manage the tags, rather than just waving a flag nicely =/

The benchmark is 18,000 UAH, timeline - 3-5 working days. This includes selecting a CMP, setting up consent states, GTM, GA4, Google Ads, event verification, and testing through Tag Assistant.

Regarding Khoroshop, the key is which code insertion points are available in your plan. There is experience with tasks involving CMP, GTM, GA4, Google Ads, and e-commerce integrations, but the implementation method on Khoroshop needs to be checked for access, as closed platforms sometimes like to play a little bureaucracy.

In short, for implementation - we set default consent before launching tags, pass updates after user selection, separate analytical and advertising permissions, and then check that tags do not fire before consent.

> Are all marketing tags currently connected through Google Tag Manager, or is part inserted directly into Khoroshop?
> Is only basic Consent Mode needed, or do we also set up advanced mode with additional event verification?

From your side, access to Khoroshop, GTM, GA4, Google Ads, and a list of services that currently set cookies or marketing events is needed. It feels like a normal task for a short technical phase, the main thing is not to reduce it to a decorative banner. Expand

Good day, Hello!

I see the essence: your banner is currently cosmetic — it collects clicks, but it does not send consent signals to Google, so GA4 and Ads load the same way, whether the user agreed or not. For the EU, this is the gap in Consent Mode v2, through which Google cuts advertising data.

GoodShop — a closed platform, there is almost no access to the code, so we keep the consent logic in Google Tag Manager, not in the site theme. This is where I implement Consent Mode v2: by default, all categories are denied, after the user's selection, a consent update goes through four signals (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization), and tags only fire after consent.

Regarding the service. For the EU market, I recommend Cookiebot — a certified Google CMP with a ready GTM template, it sends all four signals and provides a correct banner under GDPR. Cookie Bar is free, but not certified and does not support Consent Mode v2 out of the box — signals would have to be collected manually, which means more work and weaker guarantees. If the priority is peace of mind with GDPR — we take Cookiebot.

One clarification to give an accurate timeline: do you already have your own GTM container on the site, or should it be set up from scratch?

Approximately 2-3 days. I am taking it at the starting price — I am gathering initial reviews here, so I am making it beneficial. Before the release, I will show in Tag Assistant that the consents are actually being sent, so you can see the result before publication. Expand

Budget: 3000 UAH Deadline: 4 days

Hello! I was setting up Consent Mode v2 through GTM — so that GA4 and Google Ads correctly receive consents, and until the user's consent, the tags are in denied. I can either use a ready-made CMP (Cookiebot or CookieFirst, they can be integrated on top of Khoroshop), or create a custom one based on your design. Which option do you prefer — a ready-made solution or a custom one? This will affect the timeline, approximately 3-4 days.

Hello. I specialize in Khoroshop, have significant experience and a large number of successful projects behind me.

Please send a link to your project so I can answer your questions.

I am ready for fruitful collaboration and ongoing support for the project in the future.

Budget: 2500 UAH Deadline: 1 day

Good day.

I am ready to technically set up Cookie Consent and Google Consent Mode v2 for the site on Khoroshop.

I will perform:
— connection of the CMP banner;
— user consent categories;
— transmission of consent signals to GTM;
— configuration of GA4 and Google Ads;
— tag verification before and after consent is given.

I can start today. The estimated cost is $45–70 depending on the current GTM setup and the chosen CMP platform.

Please let me know if Google Tag Manager is already installed and if you have chosen a service for the cookie banner? Expand

Budget: 2800 UAH Deadline: 2 days

Hello, Allo!

I am answering your questions right away:

1. Experience with Khoroshop: Yes. Khoroshop is a closed platform, so all the logic of Consent Mode v2 is implemented through Google Tag Manager without access to the website's code. Khoroshop supports connecting a GTM container and transmitting ecommerce events to the dataLayer.

2. Recommended service: Cookiebot (or CookieYes) — certified Google CMP platforms with a ready-made GTM template. They correctly transmit all 4 signals (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization) and support GDPR. The Cookie Bar is free but not certified by Google and does not support Consent Mode v2 "out of the box" — more risks and manual configuration.

3. What I will do:
— Set up consent_default (all denied) before loading any tags
— Connect CMP via GTM template (Cookiebot or another of your choice)
— Implement consent_update after user selection
— Check that GA4 and Google Ads respond to consents/denials correctly
— Test through GTM Preview + Chrome DevTools

Deadline: 2 days after access to GTM is provided.
Cost: 2800 UAH (CMP subscription is paid separately by you). Expand

Budget: 4000 UAH Deadline: 2 days

Hello!
Consent Mode v2 on Khoroshop - implemented via GTM for similar tasks, the principle is the same for any platform with GTM support.
Recommendation: Cookiebot is more stable than the free Cookie Bar for production - better support for Consent Mode v2 out-of-the-box and less manual configuration of triggers in GTM.
What we do: connect CMP → GTM Consent Mode v2 configuration (consent_default, consent_update) → check that GA4 and Google Ads respond correctly to consent/decline.

Hello, Allo! I have reviewed the task. I fully understand the problem: the current banner is functioning as a cosmetic element, and the GA4 and Google Ads tags are loading the same way, regardless of the user's choice. This is a critical error for the EU market, which could lead Google to restrict the operation of advertising accounts. I am ready to set everything up according to the rules.

Answers to your questions:

Experience with Horoshop: Yes, I have experience working with this platform. Since Horoshop is a closed system, we will not touch the website code. I will implement all the logic for blocking and updating consent through Google Tag Manager (GTM). By default, all tags will be in a denied status, and after clicking on the banner, a consent update signal will be sent with four parameters (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization).

Service recommendation: For the EU market, I strongly recommend Cookiebot (or CookieYes). These are certified Google CMP platforms. They have ready-made templates in GTM, correctly collect geo-settings under GDPR, and automatically transmit the necessary consent signals. The free Cookie Bar can technically be connected, but it is not certified by Google, does not support Consent Mode v2 "out of the box," and all the logic would have to be manually scripted, which increases the risk of errors before a Google audit.

Cost and timelines: The estimated cost of development is 15,000 UAH, and the execution time is 8-10 days (usually 1-2 working days after analyzing your GTM container).

Examples of my work (analytics setup, JS scripts, and optimization):

Work with SEO scripts and fast indexing: indexfast.pp.ua

Custom logic on JS and web tools: pctest.pp.ua, monitortest.pp.ua

Multi-page e-commerce project: mamamia.pp.ua

Budget: 2000 UAH Deadline: 2 days

We can implement the integration of the CMP solution with the site on Khoroshop and set up Google Consent Mode v2 through Google Tag Manager. For Khoroshop, integration is possible through the standard GTM connection: the platform already supports the installation of the GTM container and the transmission of ecommerce events to the DataLayer. For this project, I would recommend Cookiebot or a similar CMP platform with official support for Google Consent Mode v2. The free Cookie Bar can technically be connected, but for full GDPR logic, consent storage, cookie categories, and correct transmission of consent signals to Google Ads/GA4, it is better to use Cookiebot/CookieYes/CookieScript. Estimated timeline: 1-2 working days after access is provided. Estimated cost of work: from 2000 to 4000 depending on the number of tags, languages of the site, current state of GTM/GA4/Google Ads, and the required depth of verification. CMP subscription is paid separately.

Good day, Allo!

Currently, the banner you have is just cosmetic: it collects clicks but does not send consent signals, so GA4 and Google Ads load the same way — whether the user agreed or not. Because of this, Consent Mode v2 is essentially not working, which is specifically required by Google for advertising in the EU.

The essence of the work is to link the banner with Consent Mode v2 through GTM: by default, all categories are denied, after user selection a consent update is sent for four signals (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization), and all tags only fire after the appropriate consent. A specific nuance of Khoroshop is that it is a closed platform with limited access to the code, so I will carefully move all consent logic to GTM.

Regarding your questions:

Which service. For the EU market, I would definitely recommend a certified Google CMP — Cookiebot (or CookieFirst). It has a ready-made GTM template, it automatically sends all four consent signals and provides a correct banner under GDPR — less risk from Google. The Cookie Bar is free, but it is just a simple banner: it is not certified by Google and does not support Consent Mode v2 "out of the box." With it, all signals would have to be collected manually in GTM — this means more work and a weaker guarantee of compliance. If the goal is peace of mind with GDPR, we take Cookiebot; if the budget is critical — we will do it on Cookie Bar, but I honestly warn about the limitations.

What is included:

- Connecting CMP and a correct banner (categories, languages, accept/reject/customize);
- Consent Mode v2 in GTM: default denied, consent update, linking all tags (GA4, Google Ads, remarketing) through consent triggers;
- Checking in Tag Assistant and Consent Mode debug that the signals actually reach GA4 and Google Ads.

Estimated: 5,000–8,000 UAH, 3–5 days. The range depends on the CMP — faster with Cookiebot, more manual work with Cookie Bar. Ready to discuss the details. Expand
