GuestCheckoutStrategy
A strategy that determines how to deal with guest checkouts - i.e. when a customer checks out without being logged in. For example, a strategy could be used to implement business rules such as:
- No guest checkouts allowed
- No guest checkouts allowed for customers who already have an account
- No guest checkouts allowed for customers who have previously placed an order
- Allow guest checkouts, but create a new Customer entity if the email address is already in use
- Allow guest checkouts, but update the existing Customer entity if the email address is already in use
Info
This is configured via the orderOptions.guestCheckoutStrategy property of
your VendureConfig.
