How Do I Set Up a WooCommerce Customer Account?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 7:34 pm

A WooCommerce customer account is a great way to keep track of your customers’ orders and contact information. It also allows you to offer discounts and other benefits to your loyal customers.

Setting up a WooCommerce customer account is easy and only takes a few minutes. Here’s how:

1. Go to the “Users” page in your WordPress dashboard. On this page, you will see a list of all the users on your site. If you don’t see the “Users” page, you can click on the “All Users” link at the top of the page.

2. Click on the “Add New” button. This will take you to the “Add New User” page.

3. Enter the customer’s information in the appropriate fields. Be sure to enter a valid email address, as this is how the customer will login to their account. You can also set a password for the customer if you’d like.

4. Select the “Customer” role from the “Role” drop-down menu. This will give the customer access to their account area on your site.

5. Click on the “Add New User” button. This will create the customer account and send an email to the customer with their login information.

And that’s it! Your WooCommerce customer account is now setup and ready to go.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with WooCommerce, we recommend that you seek help from a qualified developer before attempting to set up a customer account. In particular, note that WooCommerce customer accounts are not the same as WordPress user accounts, and you will need to take care when setting up permissions for your customer accounts.

Creating a WooCommerce customer account is a great way to keep track of important customer information and orders. By following the steps above, you can easily set up a WooCommerce customer account in just a few minutes.
