What it shows

  • Guest checkouts bind ephemeral cart state to temporary session tokens.
  • Registered checkout reuses vaulted credentials to reduce friction.
  • Optional on-the-fly registration hooks persist data after payment.

The takeaway

Keep the checkout boundary decoupled from identity so guest sessions convert with minimal friction.
