Keep reading to find out how. ### Create an account at checkout If you've enabled online accounts for your guests, they can create a new online account when they’re at checkout. Once they’ve added products to their cart and selected **Checkout**, they’ll be taken to the **Your details** page. From here, they can create a new account before completing their purchase. They will be asked to sign in using either their **email**, **mobile/cell phone number** or **preferred social account**. They will then receive instructions on how to complete their account set up. ![06_online accounts_your details account prompt.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697018895.png) > [!NOTE] > Guests sign in securely using either their email, mobile phone number or preferred social account. Guests will then be sent a code to complete sign in. They do not set a password, and instead will be sent a new code each time they sign in. If you’ve configured **auto-invites for online accounts**, then guests will also be prompted to create an account after they’ve made a purchase, via email. Guests will receive an email asking them to verify their email address, once they complete this step they access their new account. ![2024-04-17_08-37-18.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/9545125442959.png) ### Create an account from the checkout home page or products page When guests want to make a purchase online they will see two new options to select at the top of the checkout page: - **My account** (icon): View account details and payment method. - **My tickets**: View, redeem and manage passes, memberships and gift cards. ![01_online accounts_header.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697014415.png) **My account sign-in** If a guest selects the **My account** icon, they will be asked to sign in using either their email, mobile/cell phone number or preferred social account. ![2024-06-03_10-19-36.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/9896930614799.png) If they don’t already have an account, they can select **Create an account** and sign-up by email, mobile/cell phone number or their preferred social account. ![2024-06-03_10-23-57.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/9896918460047.png) > [!WARNING] > SMS fees may apply to guests who sign up (and sign in) using their mobile number. Once signed in to **My account**, your guests will be able to view their **Account details** and saved **Payment method**. ![04_online accounts_my account.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573690058511.png) **My tickets sign-in** If a guest selects **My tickets**, they’ll have the same options, to either sign in or create a new account. Once signed in, they’ll be able to view and manage any passes, memberships or gift cards that they’ve purchased, and if they make a new purchase then those items will automatically display in **My tickets** once their booking has been confirmed. ![05_online accounts_my tickets.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697018639.png) > [!NOTE] > Guests can sign in and redeem their passes, memberships and gift cards at POS, simply by showing their digital tickets to staff. ## Use an online account to redeem memberships Once signed in, your guests are able to redeem their memberships at checkout. They can select **My tickets**, then select the membership they would like to redeem and then select **Redeem**. The membership will automatically be applied at checkout. ![07_online accounts_redeem on membership.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697019151.png) > [!NOTE] > Guests are able to redeem memberships for themselves, or for others. For example, a parent may want to redeem a membership for their child. If a guest is signed in and hasn’t selected to redeem their membership proactively, ROLLER will automatically prompt them to redeem their membership (when applicable) at checkout. Guests can also select more than one membership to redeem. > [!NOTE] > Guests can also upgrade and reactivate their memberships from their online account. To learn more, read the guide [Encourage guests to self-serve membership upgrades and renewals](/v1/docs/encourage-guests-to-self-serve-membership-upgrades-renewals-and-cancellations). ## Use an online account to redeem gift cards Much like redeeming a membership, once signed in, guests can choose to redeem any gift cards they have attached to their account. To do so, they select **My tickets**, then select the gift card they would like to use. Then they select **Redeem**. ![08_online accounts_redeem giftcard.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697019663.png) The gift card will be added at checkout. ![09_online accounts_giftcard applied at checkout.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573690060559.png) If a guest has signed in and hasn’t selected to redeem their gift card proactively, they can also select **Apply a discount** at checkout and then select the gift card from there. ![10_online accounts_redeem gift card at checkout.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697020303.png) ## Manage an online account Guests can manage their passes, memberships and gift cards when logged into their online account. If they select the **My account** icon and sign in, they can: - View and edit their **Account details**, such as name, email address and mobile number. - View and edit their **Payment method**. - Sign out ![04_online accounts_my account.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573697020943.png) If they select **My tickets** and sign in, they can: - View all the active passes, memberships and gift cards they have purchased. - View their gift card balances. - View their gift card redemption history. - View and manage their memberships. - View and manage their bookings. - View and manage their party bookings. - Redeem passes, memberships and gift cards at POS. > [!NOTE] > To learn more about how guests can manage their own bookings from their online account, read the guide [Encourage guests to manage their own bookings](/v1/docs/encourage-guests-to-manage-their-own-bookings). ![11_online accounts_my tickets with gift card redemption history.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/23700755-951c-4b69-8afe-ec8b33c6c689/Images/Documentation/7573690061839.png) ## Learn more - [Configure online accounts in progressive checkouts](/v1/docs/configure-online-accounts-in-progressive-checkouts) - [Manage your online accounts](/v1/docs/manage-your-online-accounts) - [Encourage guests to self-serve membership upgrades and renewals](/v1/docs/encourage-guests-to-self-serve-membership-upgrades-renewals-and-cancellations) - [Encourage guests to manage their own bookings](/v1/docs/encourage-guests-to-manage-their-own-bookings) - [Manage party bookings with ease using online accounts](/v1/docs/manage-party-bookings-with-ease-using-online-accounts) ## Related - [Configure online accounts in progressive checkouts](/configure-online-accounts-in-progressive-checkouts.md) - [Encourage guests to manage their own bookings](/encourage-guests-to-manage-their-own-bookings.md) - [Welcome to progressive checkouts](/welcome-to-progressive-checkouts.md) - [Encourage guests to self-serve membership upgrades, renewals and cancellations](/encourage-guests-to-self-serve-membership-upgrades-renewals-and-cancellations.md) - [Manage guest online accounts](/manage-your-online-accounts.md)
