How to set up or enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for Shopify
To keep your Shopify account secure, enable two-factor authentication (2FA). This page explains how Shopify 2FA works, which methods Shopify supports, and how to protect and recover your account. The most secure option is an authenticator app: store your Shopify 2FA codes in MS Authenticator App and generate a fresh 6-digit code every time you sign in.
2FA methods Shopify supports
- SMS text message
- Authenticator app (TOTP)
- Security key (U2F / WebAuthn)
An authenticator app (TOTP) is the sweet spot: free, offline, and not vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks like SMS.

How to recover your Shopify account
If you've lost access to your Shopify account, use the backup codes you saved when enabling 2FA, or contact Shopify support to regain access. Once you're back in, re-add the account to MS Authenticator App.
