Login blocked by two-factor authentication (2FA) on a Shopify Admin Partner account after the user lost their phone and no longer has recovery codes; SMS codes are not arriving. An image was attached but is not essential to the instructions.
Support’s guidance to regain access without logging in:
Open the provided support link in a Google Chrome incognito window.
Choose “I do not have an account.”
Continue selecting relevant help topics until options for live chat or phone support appear.
Connect with a live agent to verify identity and restore access.
The original poster acknowledged the guidance. A follow-up message offered general business growth help, and another participant reported having the same 2FA access issue.
Status: No confirmation of recovery yet; resolution depends on contacting live support as instructed. Key next step is engaging live chat/phone support via incognito without account login to resolve 2FA lockout.
