August 31, 2013 - Our extensions

We are pleased to introduce the Magento extension (module) from Firebear Studio – “Fast Registration” which allows customers to register on Magento store just with E-Mail and Password (or event just E-Mail). By default Magento has five required fields on “Create New Customer Account” page: First name, Last name, Email Address, Password and Confirm password. It is really confused and not user friendly at all. Customers spend a lot of time creating an account on a store and only after all the information is filled start shopping. The modern practice shows, that the use of just login(E-Mail) & password positively affects customers behaviour. So now you can apply this feature on you own Magento store, providing your customers with the registration just with login & password!
