Hi, how can we help?

[Account] Why can't I change my mobile number?

Here are the possible reasons why you are unable to change your mobile number,


  1. Existing Shopee account
  2. This can happen depending on the sign up method (Mobile number/Google account/Apple ID/Facebook), For example, Account 1 signed up using a mobile number, and Account 2 signed up using a Google account.
  3. If you have a duplicate account, we would suggest deleting one of the duplicated accounts and linking all your information into one account only.
  4. If you can't remember the password, don't fret! You can easily reset it by clicking here: reset your password.
