Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureYour B2B buyers already have accounts in Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Auth0, or another OpenID Connect provider. Gatehouse lets them sign in to your store with those, while retail shoppers get Google or a one-time email code. Shopify customer accounts accept one identity provider: Gatehouse fills it, then gives each customer group its own sign-in page, methods, and branding, linked from your store.
Customer signin / signup using various third party authentication services helps in increased customer registrations and customer retention. The app is setup with default configuration on installation and is easy to customize if required. It supports multipass for Shopify Plus stores.
