How can we help?

Your customers can create their own logins to view their purchase history, work with cards-on-file, and access other useful information through your website. This system is fully automated, and requires no effort on your part to maintain.

 

Activating Customer Website Logins

To enable the Customer Website Login, you will go to the Admin Button which is your username and click Settings > Website Settings > Shopping Cart.

Once you're in the Shopping Cart settings area, scroll all the way to the bottom and find the Customer Login Options area, turn it ON, then click Save at the bottom.

Please Note: Customer Website Login functionality works only on websites that utilize the mobile-friendly Responsive architecture. This option will not be available to you if you are on our older architecture.

If a customer asks you how they can log in, please refer them to this article, and the following section.

Follow these steps to create your account login:

1. Go to the website and click the Login link on the far right.
2. Just below the login area, click Create Account.

Website Account Details

Your customers can view whatever data fields you decide in their Account Info area. You can also decide if they can edit the data in those fields. Data fields that are editable will be white, as pictured below, or grayed out, if they are not editable. In the section below for Configure Online Account Data Fields, you can learn how to set up which ones display and which are editable by the customer.

Customers can view their transaction list in the Order History area, and can click to View individual transactions with full details.

If a customer has any open Invoices, they will be listed under the Invoices tab. They will be able to see the Invoice number, Due Date, and other important info, and can enter an amount they will pay online toward the balance due. After entering the amount, they can just click the Continue to Payment button to go to the shopping cart and make the payment.

Customers can also view their Reward progress and see how close they're getting to the next Reward coupon on the Rewards tab. They can also see any active Reward coupons they have earned.

If a customer wants to create a Gift Registry, or view any Gift Registries previously created, they can do so in the Gift Registry area, as pictured below. For full details on Gift Registry functionality, click here: Gift Registry.

If you are integrated with Worldpay your customers will be able to add up to two Cards on File in the Payment Options area. They can also track payments for Rent to Own / Rent to Rent contracts, and make card adjustments and payments there, if needed.
