Sign-in options for customer accounts

By default, customers sign in to their accounts using passwordless authentication. They enter their email address and receive a one-time 6-digit verification code. A password isn't required to sign in. You can extend this experience by connecting additional sign-in providers to give customers more ways to authenticate.

You can offer the following sign-in options for customer accounts:

  • Social sign-in: Let customers sign in using Google, Facebook, Apple, or their Shop credentials. Social sign-in works alongside the default passwordless experience and can be activated for multiple providers at the same time.
  • Identity provider (Shopify Plus only): Replace the default sign-in experience by connecting your own OpenID Connect (OIDC) compliant identity provider, such as Auth0 or Okta, to activate single sign-on across your platforms.
