Switch from Termly to CookieBoss

A consent-focused specialist with transparent EUR pricing and edge-compiled scripts under 25KB. Migrate in under 10 minutes.

Why teams are switching

Termly bundles cookie consent with legal policy generators you may not need. CookieBoss focuses exclusively on consent with deeper technical features: edge-compiled scripts under 25KB, Shadow DOM isolation, transparent EUR pricing, and a full REST API. If you already have legal policies in place, CookieBoss gives you a faster, more focused solution.

Common Termly frustrations

Based on publicly reported user feedback. CookieBoss is designed to solve each of these.

Heavy, bloated scripts

Termly loads 100KB+ of JavaScript from a centralized CDN. This significantly impacts Core Web Vitals (INP, LCP) and can drag down your SEO performance, especially on mobile devices.

CookieBoss: Edge-compiled vanilla JS under 25KB, served from 300+ Cloudflare PoPs.

Bundled features you don't need

Termly bundles cookie consent with privacy policy generators, terms of service, and other legal documents. If you already have legal policies, you're paying for features you don't use.

CookieBoss: Consent-focused. You pay only for what you need.

USD-only pricing

Termly prices exclusively in USD starting at ~$20/mo. For European businesses, this means currency conversion fees and unpredictable costs as exchange rates fluctuate.

CookieBoss: Native EUR pricing from €9/mo. No conversion fees.

No cross-domain consent

Termly does not support cross-domain consent sharing. If you have multiple domains, visitors must consent separately on each one, leading to consent fatigue and lower opt-in rates.

CookieBoss: Server-side cross-domain consent sync with link decoration (Pro+).

Why switch?

4x smaller scripts

Edge-compiled vanilla JS under 25KB vs Termly's 100KB+. Better Core Web Vitals, better SEO, faster page loads.

Transparent EUR pricing

From €9/mo instead of ~$20/mo. No bundled legal tools inflating the price. Pay only for consent.

Full REST API

Automate consent management across all your sites. No manual dashboard clicking for every change.

The script swap

Remove (Termly)

<script type="text/javascript"
  src="https://app.termly.io/resource-blocker/
    YOUR-TERMLY-ID">
</script>

Add (CookieBoss)

<script
  src="https://cdn.cookieboss.io/s/YOUR-SITE-ID.js"
  defer>
</script>

Your CookieBoss site ID is shown in the dashboard after you add your domain. The script tag goes in the <head> of every page — the same place Termly was. If you use a CMS or tag manager, update it there.

Using Google Tag Manager?

If you installed Termly via GTM, remove the Termly tag from your container and add CookieBoss using our GTM integration guide. CookieBoss handles Google Consent Mode v2 natively — no separate consent mode template needed.
