Above-the-Fold Checkout with Advanced Guest Checkout for PrestaShop

Above-the-Fold Checkout Built to Convert

Most checkout abandonment happens before payment. This module focuses on eliminating friction at the exact moment it matters—using proven UX patterns inspired by enterprise-scale retailers and refined for real-world PrestaShop stores.

The result is a fast, predictable, above-the-fold checkout flow that works seamlessly across desktop, tablet, and mobile—without breaking your theme or existing modules.

What Makes This Checkout Different

1. True 3-Step Above-the-Fold Checkout

The entire checkout process is immediately visible—no scrolling, no confusion:

Step 1: Customer details
Step 2: Shipping & options
Step 3: Payment & confirmation

Designed to feel lightweight, intentional, and fast—especially on mobile.

2. Advanced Guest Checkout (Key Conversion Feature)

Native PrestaShop behavior blocks guest checkout when an email already exists, forcing customers into a login flow. If login fails, carts are abandoned.

This module removes that blocker.

If login fails, the visitor is automatically onboarded as a guest
Checkout continues without interruption
Returning customers are not punished for forgetting passwords

This alone resolves one of the most common hidden conversion leaks in PrestaShop stores.

3. Optimized for Returning Customers

Most checkout modules focus on first-time buyers. This module is specifically designed to reduce friction for existing customers—often the most valuable segment of your traffic.

4. Safe A/B-Style Deployment

Install and configure privately
Test without impacting live checkout
Enable only when ready

No forced switch. No production surprises.

5. Theme-Friendly & Module-Compatible

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

Do you have a version of this module that is compatible with 1.6?

Hi, no sorry, this module uses template inheritance which was introduced in PS 1.7, and a good reason to use PS 1.7.

We run this on all new and existing inhouse client shops, it's wonderful, but we could do better marketing to community.

Have a great day, Fred
