Guest Checkout

In the Oro storefront, guest customers can place orders similarly to registered users. They are, however, limited to just one shopping list.

Unauthenticated customers can proceed to the checkout through:

  • Guest Quick Order Forms
  • Guest Shopping Lists

At the checkout, guest customers can:

  • Login if they have forgotten to do this before placing items in the shopping list.
  • Create an account.

Sample Guest Checkout

As an illustration, let us follow the steps of the checkout as an unauthenticated user. The following example has registration options available at the checkout. However, please keep in mind, that your website configuration may be different and registration options may be unavailable.

  1. Add selected items to the shopping list.
