In short
You don't need an account to buy: checkout starts with just your name and email. A free account lets you save favorites, follow artists, message them and track every order, and takes about a minute with Google or your email.

Do you need an account?#
Not to buy. You can check out as a guest with just your email. An account adds a lot, though:
| Option | What you get |
|---|---|
| Guest checkout | Enter just your name and email at checkout. We set up a free account with that email for you, so you can confirm delivery and see your order later. |
| Free account | Save favorites in folders, follow artists, message them before you buy, track every order in one place, and request refunds from your dashboard. |
