Websites + Marketing Help

Allow customers to create an account on your website

When you enable Websites + Marketing's Member Accounts feature, you make things simpler for your customers and yourself:

  • Customers can save or change their shipping and profile info to speed up checkout.
  • Customers can check the status of their orders and appointments.
  • As the site owner, you can grant customers and members access to private pages with sales and other promotional information.

Without the Member Accounts feature enabled, customers can still purchase your products or sign up for events and appointments. They just can't see their own shipping or profile info.

  1. Go to your GoDaddy product page.
  2. Scroll down, expand Websites + Marketing and select Manage next to your site.
  3. On your dashboard, expand Customers, and then select Settings.
  4. Turn on the Member Accounts toggle.
  5. Select Accept to republish your site.
  6. You can now control access to private pages.
    • To allow all members access to your private pages: Select Anyone can create an account to access my private pages.
    • To choose which members have access to specific private pages: Select Only people I invite can access my private pages. People invited to view your private pages will receive an email with an Activate Account link. They'll use the link to create an account password, which is separate from being a member (managing shipping and appointments).
