Shopify recently launched highly anticipated Store Credit features for merchants natively. However, many stores run into a tricky dependency issue: advanced credit features often require switching entirely to the strictly constrained “New Customer Accounts” functionality.
For brands utilizing custom OTP login solutions—like Simplify My Login—switching entirely away from “Legacy” (or Classic) customer accounts can break complex authentication funnels.
Simplify My Login is currently the only app that supports OTP login while allowing you to heavily utilize these new native Store Credit features on Legacy accounts.
(Note: These deep integration features currently require a Shopify Plus tier subscription to configure properly.)
We have created an in-depth visual step-by-step Scribe tutorial for developers and agencies looking to bridge this gap.

A full technical teardown of how this is achieved will be published shortly, detailing how we utilize the Multipass API and headless routing to maintain state across the account borders.
