disable guest checkout in Magento 2.
Benefits of restricting guest checkout in Magento 2:
- Collect maximum customer data in the registration form that can be used for effective marketing strategy
- Easy repeat purchase for the customers
- Get updates on ongoing offers and sales in the store
- Avail the benefits of the upgraded customer group
- Get relevant product recommendations
Collecting maximum customer data can be even easier in Magento 2 if you restrict guest checkout as the default Magento 2 allows configuring customer accounts. So, the admin can easily mandate the fields required and let customers sign up!
However, if you think that disabling guest checkout can slow down the purchase process, Meetanshi’s Magento 2 Guest to Customer extension can be a win-win situation for your business. It allows the admin to auto-convert guests to registered customers after the checkout step is finished.
For now, you can simply disable guest checkout in Magento 2 store as shown here:
Steps to Disable Guest Checkout in Magento 2:
- Login to Magento 2 admin panel
- Navigate to Stores > Settings > Configuration
- Under Sales, select Checkout
- Expand Checkout Options area
- Set No in Allow Guest Checkout to disable the checkout for guests.
- Click Save Config
That’s it.
If you want to go one step ahead and restrict visitors to access store pages until registration, you can check Magento 2 Force Login where the admin can control the access to store and display an alert message for compulsory login.

The Magento 2 CMS allows the admin to configure the shopping cart page to appear as per the business requirement.
The admin has to decide whether to keep the customer on the same page or redirect to cart page after adding product to cart in Magento 2 store.
If you choose to redirect to the cart page, you are encouraging the customers to checkout and hence result in a quick conversion. However, if you are choosing not to redirect but keep them on the same page, you are prompting them to continue shopping in your store.
The choice is yours!
In March 2020, 88.05 percent of online shopping orders were abandoned, i.e. not converted into a purchase, according to Statista
If you quickly take them to the cart page, this number can be reduced!
However, the behaviour of the customer and the nature of the business is to be considered before configuring the redirection to the shopping cart page.
Steps to Redirect Customers to Shopping Cart After Adding a Product to Cart in Magento 2:
-
Login to Magento 2 admin panel
-
Navigate to Stores > Settings > Configuration
-
Under Sales, select Checkout
-
Expand Shopping Cart section
-
Set Yes in After Adding a Product Redirect to Customers to enable redirection to Shopping Cart.
-
Click Save Config
That’s it.
