Navigate to Settings > Website Editor > Website Properties > Checkout Design and you will see a variety of fields where you can edit the logo for, and styles of, your checkout, ranging from the background color to the button colors.
1. Select the fonts that best match your branding. We allow you to choose from hundreds of Google Fonts.
2. Choose any colors that you'd like for the buttons, background and fonts.
For any color selections, you can click on the square color preview to reveal a color picker. If you know the exact hex code that you want, you can also type that directly into the input. (A hex code is a combination of 6 digits used to represent colors.)
3. While you make changes, there is also a Preview Styles area that allows you to quickly see the updates you are making without visiting your website.

We strongly recommend you enable this feature due to all the benefits it confers. For more information on how to set this up, please click here

So if a user has a Facebook account currently with the same email, using Facebook login will prompt the user to confirm their email, and will error since the email entered is the same on their existing account.
