# Customer account

***

When a customer logs in, the details stored in their account are auto-filled during checkout for a faster checkout experience. 

If you want to show the account icon, check the following steps.

1. From your **Shopify Admin >** go to **Settings** **> Customer accounts.**

Customers can log in using an email and a password. Customers accept account invites or create a new account from the login page. Customers can edit the name associated with the shipping address, which doesn't change the customer profile name in your admin.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="New customer account" %}

Customers can log in using a one-time six-digit verification code that's sent to their email address. Accounts are created when a customer logs in using an email address. Customers can edit the customer profile name, and the change is reflected in their customer profile in your admin.

{% endtabs %}
