Bolt One-Click Checkout is a Bolt product that serves multiple customers:

• Retailers: Bolt Checkout enables a hassle-free, secure one click checkout experience and gives the Bolt One-Click Checkout to 11 million shoppers 一 even if they’ve never been at your site before. Get 50% higher checkout conversion rates, more repeat purchases, and higher AOV with Bolt One-Click.

• Shoppers: Shoppers will avoid the headache of remembering passwords and filling out lengthy forms 一 every shopper in the Bolt network gets an expedited shopping experience.

Bolt provides a cross-retailer accounts network for consumers shopping online. This allows shoppers to sign up only once across merchants in the Bolt network. Once a shopper visits a Bolt merchant, they experience a one click checkout - thanks to saved address and payment information.

As a result, shoppers can experience a One-Click Checkout experience on all sites in the BigCommerce + Bolt Network. Because the experience is added onto your checkout, the checkout looks and feels native without navigating users off of your store.

If you are not immediately logged in during the sign up and set up process, you should receive an invitation email from merchantsupport@bolt.com inviting you to log into your account.

After that, you can access your Bolt Account via our Merchant Dashboard at merchant.bolt.com.

In the event that your shopper has a BigCommerce Store Account (or, while you are running tests and also have a BigCommerce Store Account), BigCommerce Store Accounts will have login precedence over Bolt Shopper Accounts. This usually happens when accounts are tied to the same email.

This means that a user with a BigCommerce Store Account, as well as a Bolt Shopper Account, will be logged into their BigCommerce Account first.

We recommend using BigCommerce for Back Office Orders.

In the Analytics tab of your Bolt Merchant Dashboard, you can see a variety of metrics and analytics related to shopper activity in your storefront.
