Create user on order status completed action hook in WooCommerce 3+

I am trying to create a new user within the woocommerce_order_status_completed hook.

add_action( 'woocommerce_order_status_completed', 'custom_woocommerce_order_status_completed', 10, 1 );

function custom_woocommerce_order_status_completed( $order_id )
{
    $password = wp_generate_password( 16, true );
    $user_id = wp_create_user( '[email protected]', $password, '[email protected]' );
}

$user_id returns an actual ID. It appears to create the user but when i look at the backend the user is not there. I even check the database for the user id and it's not there.

If i call the same function on the action woocommerce_after_register_post_type it creates the user.

Any idea what could be causing this issue?

The following code uses Woocommerce wc_create_new_customer() dedicated function instead:

add_action( 'woocommerce_order_status_completed', 'action_on_order_status_completed', 20, 2 );
function action_on_order_status_completed( $order_id, $order ){
    $password    = wp_generate_password( 16, true );
    $user_name   = $user_email = '[email protected]';
    // $user_name   = $user_email = $order->get_billing_email();
    $customer_id = wc_create_new_customer( $user_email, $user_name, $password );
}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.

It looks like your function name does not match the one call within your hook:

custom_woocommerce_order_status_completed
