Two-step authentication recovery codes

When you set up a two-step authentication method, you have the opportunity to save ten recovery codes and store them in a safe place. Recovery codes let you access your Shopify admin if any other authentication method isn't available. For example, if you don't have access to your mobile device, then you can use one of your recovery codes to log in to your account if it has two-step authentication activated.

Store your recovery codes in a safe, confidential location that you can access from anywhere. You can print, copy, or download the recovery codes. In addition, you can store your recovery codes in a password manager or a cloud storage location that you can access easily, such as:

• Dropbox
• iCloud
• Google Drive
