Customer accounts
Customer accounts let your customers log in to view their orders, profile information, and saved addresses. When a customer logs in, the details stored in their account are auto-filled during checkout for a faster checkout experience.
There are two versions of customer accounts: classic and new customer accounts. Both classic and new customer accounts are available to you and can be used by your customers. You can choose which version of customer accounts to use in your online store. If you choose to use new customer accounts, then most links to classic customer accounts will automatically redirect to new customer accounts. Learn more aboutswitching to new customer accounts.
