Why You Should Checkout As a Guest When Shopping Online
When you shop online , most retailers give you the option to check out as a guest or register with them. The latter may make it more convenient to check out next time, but this is a case for buying as a guest.
Of course, there are advantages to registering and creating an online account on the site. Again, this is more convenient, and maybe they will send you coupons in the future. However, CNET objects to this:
Almost every online store will ask you to create an account before placing an order. If you can go as a “guest”, you should. Using a guest account will keep most of your personal data outside of the company’s servers and safe in the event of a breach.
If you don’t shop frequently in the store, it’s probably worth playing it safe and just buying as a guest. More tips on how to shop safely online can be found in their full post at the link below.
