Overview
If you have forgotten your account password or are unable to sign in to your seller dashboard, StoreYug provides an automated, self-service password recovery workflow. You can reset your password securely in three simple steps using an email verification code.
The 3-Step Password Recovery Process
Step 1: Request a Reset Code
- Open the StoreYug login screen.
- Click the Forgot password? link located directly beneath the password field.
- In the Email Address field, enter the email address registered with your StoreYug account.
- Click the Send OTP button.
🔒 Privacy & Anti-Enumeration Protection: To prevent malicious actors from checking whether specific email addresses have registered stores on StoreYug, the recovery screen displays the same generic confirmation message: "If that email is registered, you'll receive an OTP shortly. Check your inbox."
Step 2: Enter the Verification OTP
- Check your email inbox for an email from StoreYug with the subject "Reset your password - StoreYug".
- Copy the 6-digit verification code. The code remains valid for 5 minutes.
- On the Verify OTP page, enter the 6 digits into the OTP input field.
- Click Verify OTP.
Note: If you do not receive the email within a couple of minutes, check your Spam or Promotions folder. You can request a new code after the 2-minute cooldown timer expires (up to 3 resends are permitted). If you typed the wrong address, click "Wrong email? Start over". Submitting incorrect codes 5 times will cancel the session for security.
Step 3: Choose Your New Password
- Once your verification code is confirmed, the Reset Password screen will load.
- Enter your desired new password in the New Password field (minimum 8 characters). An eye toggle icon, 4-bar strength meter, and 5-point requirements checklist help you craft a strong password.
- Retype the password in the Confirm Password field to verify accuracy.
- Click Reset Password.
Post-Reset Confirmation & Login
After clicking Reset Password:
- Your account credentials update immediately in the secure database.
- A confirmation security notice is dispatched to your email address confirming that your password was successfully changed.
- You are redirected back to the login page with a green success message: "Your password has been reset successfully! Please log in with your new password."
- You can now sign in using your new credentials.
