2. Configure Guest Checkout Register vs. Traditional Login
It’s possible to configure whether the guest checkout register form or the traditional login form is shown first when guest checkout is enabled for a store. This allows the admin to emphasize guest checkout over traditional login (if set to true), or to show traditional login first (if set to false).
Go to Configuration > Settings > All settings (advanced)
Search for checkout.guestcheckout.preferguest
Click Edit.
Change Value to True to display guest checkout first, False to display traditional login screen (see examples in the table below.) For resorts using Identity, this value MUST be set to True.
Click Update.
Setting | Value | Store | Example (Click to enlarge) | ||
checkout.guestcheckout.preferguest | True - Prefer guest checkout False - Prefer traditional login
| This can be configured at the store level. If you have multiple stores, input the store this applies to. Otherwise, leave blank. | True False |
3. Configure Selective Guest Checkout (Optional, but Recommended)
While this is an optional step, nearly all resorts will choose to utilize the Selective Guest checkout feature. Guest checkout may be enabled either globally within the store or by individual products. The following steps need to be completed IN ADDITION to the steps above to enable Selective Guest Checkout. This will limit guest checkout to carts that contain only products that are guest checkout eligible.
This feature works by enabling three settings. Two are at the global level and one is at the product level. After enabling Anonymous Guest Checkout (see above), complete the following:
Go to Configuration > Settings > Order Settings
Scroll down to the Additional Order Settings section
Check “Selective Guest Checkout”
Scroll to the top of the Order Settings page and click Save (This will enable selective guest checkout which makes guest checkout only available for carts that contain selective guest checkout-eligible products.)
Then, go to Catalog > Products and click Edit on the desired product.
Scroll to and expand the Additional Product Settings drop-down.
Check “Selective Selective Guest Checkout”Checkout.
Scroll to the top of the page and click Save.

4. (Optional) Enable Phone Number Capture
This setting will turn on the option to save a phone number during checkout’s payment screen. This is beneficial as guest checkout customers are otherwise not prompted to enter a phone number.
Go to Admin > Configuration > Payment methods > select your active payment method > Configure > select the checkbox for Requires Phone Number
Click Save.
