Are you encountering the following error when attempting to log in to ShipStation? If so, this section will guide you through a few steps to get you logged in to ShipStation successfully.
The username or password you entered was invalid. Please note that repeated failed attempts will result in your account being locked out.
All usernames are unique, but ShipStation allows the same email address to be associated with multiple usernames. In most cases, your email is also your username.
Always log in with your username to ensure your credentials match the account you are logging into. There may be some cases where an email is linked to multiple usernames, and you are unsure of your or other usernames associated with your account. Check with the account admin to see what other usernames there are. Then, try logging in with the other usernames.
Once you are sure that you are logging in with the correct username, the next step is to reset your password.
-
Click the Forgot my password link on the ShipStation login page.
-
Enter your username into the Username field. (Be sure to enter your username, not your email address.) Then, click the Send Password Reset Instructions button.
-
Check for an email sent to the email address associated with your username. Click the Reset Password: link in the email.
-
Enter a new password into the New Password and Confirm Password fields. Then, click the Change Password button.
-
Log in to ShipStation using your username and new password.
Your ShipStation user account may become locked or inaccessible after multiple failed login attempts. Another possibility is that your account is set not to allow you to log in.
Have your ShipStation administrator check your user account to see if it is locked or set not to allow logins.
To check a ShipStation user account:
-
Go to
Settings > Account > User Management
. -
Click the Edit link to the right of the locked user account.
-
Click the Unlock Account button (this button will be present only if the account is locked).
-
Verify that the Allow this user to log in option is checked.
Attempt to log in again using your username and password.
If you are still unable to log in, an account admin must contact ShipStation Support to request a password reset.
Password reset requests require the following:
-
The user contacting ShipStation MUST be an active Admin-level user on the account.
-
The username of the user unable to log into ShipStation.
-
The billing address and last four digits of the credit card used for the ShipStation subscription.
-
If you are the only user on the account and are unable to log in to submit a support case, provide the information needed in an email to support@shipstation.com.
