Every new password is a reason to postpone a purchase. Almost everyone who uses the Russian internet has a Yandex account, so signing in with it removes registration from the path to an order: the customer presses the button, confirms the sign-in and is already authorised.

What it does

• Sign-in and registration in one click through Yandex ID.
• Automatic profile creation from Yandex data: email, first name, last name, phone, address.
• A welcome email with a generated password and a link to change it — the template is ready and editable.
• Two button styles: a wide button with a caption or a compact icon.
• The official Yandex ID widget (Yandex Passport SDK) — a familiar, trusted interface.
• The button in the sign-in window the store opens from any page, including checkout.
• Multi-language and multi-storefront support; works in CS-Cart, Multi-Vendor and Ultimate.

Setup

Create an OAuth application at oauth.yandex.ru, set the return URL there — the add-on shows a ready one — and paste the ClientID into the settings. The button appears on the storefront; no code changes are needed.

Support and updates

Setup and the sign-in flow are covered in the documentation. Six months of free updates, questions through HelpDesk.

FAQ

Can the customer also sign in the usual way?

Yes: on registration through Yandex ID the store sends an email with a generated password and a link to change it.

Do I need a developer for the setup?

No, creating an OAuth application in Yandex and pasting the ClientID into the settings is enough.
