# Enable members to access their benefits (legacy customer accounts)

**Setup time is approximately 5 minutes**

This is the final launch step for stores using legacy customer accounts. It takes a little longer than the new customer accounts flow because you need to add both the Member Login component and the Access Membership Link component before testing the member experience.

Note: This applies if you are using legacy customer accounts which you can find in your store Settings as per the image below.
