If you have an account with a merchant who decides to use Bolt for login and checkout, you will no longer need to use a password to login and shop on hundreds of other online stores in the Bolt Network. Instead, you’ll use your email or phone number to login. Then, Bolt will send you a One-Time Password, and you can continue your checkout with saved payment and address information.
