SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Requiring account creation before purchase introduces friction that causes many first-time shoppers to abandon checkout; guest checkout removes that barrier while preserving a path to capture customers post-purchase.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Platform configuration: Clear, platform-specific instructions for enabling or verifying guest checkout on Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and headless/custom stores.
  • Email-first entry & order tracking: Collect only an email at checkout entry, allow continue-as-guest for existing emails, and enable order tracking with order number + email without forcing account creation.
  • Post-purchase retention: Generate secure, time-limited account-creation tokens and include one-click links in order confirmations to convert guests later while transferring historical guest orders to the new account.
  • Fraud and metrics guidance: Recommendations to apply fraud scoring to guest orders and track guest checkout adoption and post-purchase conversion metrics.

Quick Start

Enable guest checkout in your platform settings, collect only the shopper's email at entry, place orders with userId set to null and guestEmail saved, and include a 72-hour account creation link in the order confirmation email.
