Membership join popup & account-required checkout

The two moments that funnel every visitor into a Powerhouse account: the arrival join popup (any ActivPower asset) and the account-required checkout (Powerhouse Checkout Center). Every customer must create a Basic or Premium account, or log in to an existing Powerhouse account.

1 · Arrival join popup — appears on first visit to any ActivPower asset

Placement & rules. One dismissible popup per visitor (capped; never re-nag in a session). Migration bar shows only to returning/known visitors. “Keep looking” is a plain link, not a button. At checkout, the customer must create a Basic/Premium account or log in before payment.

2 · Account required at the Powerhouse Checkout Center

Account required. Every Powerhouse checkout customer must have a Powerhouse account before payment.

Basic account is free and can be created directly from this checkout flow.
Premium account requires account creation first; the $75/year Premium membership is then added to the cart and paid through the normal checkout.
Existing members can log in instead of creating another account.
No guest checkout: the Continue as Guest option is removed from the interface and blocked server-side.

Checkout behaviour

// Every checkout visitor must authenticate
if (!loggedIn) {
  choose('basic');             // default account tier
  showAccountForm();
}

// Basic registration -> existing cart -> checkout
// Premium registration -> add $75 membership -> checkout
// Existing member login -> existing cart -> checkout
