Must-Have Cookie

What Must-Have Cookie is
Must-Have Cookie is a WordPress consent management platform for self-hosted and web use. It governs cookies and third-party resources according to visitor consent, with notice-only, cookie-consent, and full-consent modes. Full Consent can block third-party requests and control scripts, iframes, images, fonts, and imported CSS before consent. The plugin detects visitor locations to tailor opt-in or opt-out behavior to regional rules and supports consent experiences in all official EU languages. It supports in-app browsing through services such as Facebook and Instagram, with visitors needing consent only once. Installation scanning can handle newly added cookies and third-party embeds. When logging is enabled, records may include device ID, IP address, device information, timestamp, and consent details. Google Consent Mode v2 compatibility is listed. Single covers one website at €2.99 per month or €29.99 per year; Multi covers five at €7.99 per month or €79.99 per year. Pageviews and domains are unlimited.
