Understanding Guest Checkout for Your Store

What is Guest Checkout?

Guest Checkout is a feature that allows store administrators to configure their store to accept purchases from any visitor without the need to add them to the store's user list. This setup is ideal for stores that prioritize quick and easy transactions over managing a user base.

How Does It Work?

When your store is set to "Guest Checkout," any visitor can browse your store and make purchases without creating an account or being added to your user list. This streamlines the purchasing process, making it more convenient for customers who prefer a faster, hassle-free checkout experience.

Important Considerations:

1. No User List Management: Once your store is set to Guest Checkout, you won’t be able to add users to the store's user list. This means you won’t have the ability to assign credits or track user-specific rewards.

2. Permanent Store Type: Choosing the Guest Checkout option is a permanent decision. After your store is launched as a Guest Checkout store, you cannot revert it to a credit-based or gift store. This ensures that your store's operations remain consistent and focused on a streamlined checkout process.

Is Guest Checkout Right for Your Store?

Guest Checkout is ideal for stores that aim to offer a simple, quick purchasing experience without the need for user management or rewards. If you value these features, Guest Checkout might not be the best fit.

Setting Up Guest Checkout:

1. Access your store's dashboard.
2. Navigate to the "Customize" tab.
3. Click on "Advanced settings".
4. Select the option "Allow guest checkout."
5. Click "Save to store".
