No, guest check-in does not automatically sign them up for the auction.

If they have a bidder ID, email address, and credit card on file, or they have already created a portal account, they can use this information to **Sign In** to the auction.

If a guest (actual attendee) does not have this information and has not already created a portal account, they will need to create one using the **Register** link on the auction page.
