Enable members to access their benefits

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 customer accounts flow because you need to add both the Member Login component and the Access Membership Link component before testing the member experience.

Shopify deprecated legacy customer accounts on February 26, 2026. Stores already using them can continue for now, but Shopify recommends upgrading to customer accounts. A final sunset date will be announced later in 2026. Learn more from Shopify.

This applies if you are using legacy customer accounts, which you can find in your store settings as shown below.
