Key benefits: * 🔗 **Instant Assignment** – New guest orders with a matching email are immediately linked to the customer’s account. * 🔄 **Historic Back-fill** – On user registration or login, all past guest orders with that billing email are attached. * ⚡ **Zero Configuration** – Works right out of the box; no settings to tweak. * 🛠 **Developer Hooks** – Extend or customize via actions before/after assignment. ### Features 1. **Automatic Order Assignment** Guest orders are automatically reassigned to an existing user account when the billing email matches. 2. **Historical Order Recovery** On account creation or login, all previous guest orders for that email are back-filled. 3. **Real-time Processing** Both guest and logged-in checkouts are processed instantly during the WooCommerce checkout flow. 4. **Secure & Reliable** Built on WordPress and WooCommerce best practices to ensure data integrity. 5. **Developer Hooks** 6. * `goa_before_attach_order` * `goa_after_attach_order` ### Requirements * WordPress 5.0 or higher * WooCommerce 3.0 or higher * PHP 7.2 or higher ### Verifying It’s Working 1.

Only the first matching user will be used. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/abe78a242585216adb71ac16029ae591ee9ec6c0dc8c08cfd3541d924342cdae? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very much needed fuctionality.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-much-needed-fuctionality/)󠁿 [@anansi.pro](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mahasvin/) March 13, 2026 Thank you.

Before I was spending time every morning merging orders from guest checkouts into customer accounts. Now the plugin just handles it automatically whenever someone uses the same email address.
