Provide all details of your extension’s features and functionality. Include any updates.

Many e-commerce store owners and B2b e-commerce stores owners want the functionality to manually approve accounts after checking customer credentials before they can log in or commit to any order. Customer Activation extension for Magento 2 by MageArray facilitates this. By default, all customers can log in immediately after creating an account. Customer activation extension expands the registration process by making new customers' status "pending" ( pending registration ).

Customer activation extension enables manual customer activation. Newly registered customers need to be approved by administrators before they can log in or create orders. When anyone registers to the website, the admin will get a notification email regarding the new registration. The admin can review the new customer in the admin area and can approve/deny. If the admin approves the account, then the user will get an email notification.
