Pirate Ship 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App
Pirate Ship lets you secure your account with an authenticator app. With 2FA on, each login needs a fresh 6-digit code, keeping your Pirate Ship account safe even if your password leaks.
A Pirate Ship account can hold your deliveries and addresses, so protect it with 2FA. Besides an authenticator app, Pirate Ship also offers email codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience.

How to recover your Pirate Ship account
If you lose access to your authenticator and Pirate Ship gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Pirate Ship doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Pirate Ship's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
