2. Customise Emails

When a user checks out as a guest, they can tick the 'Create Account & Remember my details' checkbox to register as a user an account on your site. 

If this checkbox is ticked, upon submission of the order, the system will check whether the guest user's email address is already registered. TIP - This checkbox can be set to default to 'ticked' by default, in the Delivery Address B2C widget.
