# Access Restrictions

## Ready to Set an Opening Date and an NFT Requirment?

Prepare to reward your community and monetize your content through NFT gating features — coming soon.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For the current version of this tool, it is possible to require a specific NFT or any NFT from a specific collection to be owned or equipped by the player in order to enter an Experience.&#x20;

However, selling Assets on the Marketplace is currently limited to those with early access. More flexibility is in development.
{% endhint %}

## Open the Access Restrictions Manager

Click on the **Access Restrictions** button in the left menu of the [**Experience Manager**](/en/creator/game-maker/publish-experiences/experience-manager.md). Note the status is shown for the Access Restrictions in the Manager.&#x20;

## User Interface

### Opening Date

In this section, you can set the opening date for your Experience to be playable. This can be set in the future, which automatically activates the **Play** button on your [**Experience Page**](/en/creator/game-maker/publish-experiences/experience-manager/experience-page.md).

Clicking on the **Opening Date** button will open a calendar tool to select the date and time you prefer, based on your time zone.

{% hint style="warning" %}
By default, your Experience has an opening date set to **Same Day as Launch** and **open to everyone**. If you **request early access** using the link in the Experience Manager, you can choose an earlier date in this panel and save changes.
{% endhint %}

### NFT Requirement

Clicking the **NFT Restricted Access** button will allow you to enter a Token ID for a specific NFT the player must own to access the Experience **OR** choose a collection from the available list to indicate the player must own an NFT within it. This feature is also referred to as *NFT Gating*.

If an NFT Requirement is set, the [**Experience Page**](/en/creator/game-maker/publish-experiences/experience-manager/experience-page.md) will show a **See Requirements** button instead of a **Play** button, which will open a window to give players more information and direct links to purchase the required tokens to enter.
