Redirecting Customers to External Websites

How to redirect customers to external resources from a website?

Before you proceed to configure the settings of the extensions, make sure that you have downloaded and imported the Geo IP Data. For that, please open Magento Admin Panel → Stores → Configuration → Geo IP Data → Configuration, click the Download and Import button.

To configure & use the option that redirects to external resources from the website, go to Magento Admin Panel → Stores → Configuration → Amasty → Geo IP Redirect → Configuration → Redirect to website outside your Magento instance. Enable the Enable Country → URL option and specify countries and URLs for the redirect. The scope of the Country to URL Mapping option is store view, that means that you may apply different countries and different URLs on a store view basis.

Make sure to add the URL that includes http:// or https:// protocol to the Enable Country → URL option.

As you may see in the video, when customers visit the store view where the option to redirect to external resources from the website is enabled, they are redirected to the URL specified.
