Should I ask customers to send passwords or one-time codes?

No. The templates explicitly tell shoppers not to send passwords, one-time codes, backup codes, private links, ID images, card numbers, bank details, or other secrets in support email.

Does this template guarantee account access?

No. It explains a next support step without promising unlock, restored access, verification success, order access, refund, or exact timing.

Account-support email template

Account locked order access template for Shopify merchants

A reply when a locked account prevents the shopper from viewing order information. It keeps the response safe and practical: use store-side lookup details, avoid collecting secrets, and do not promise account unlock, restored access, verification success, order access, refund, or exact timing.

Template copy

Account access and order support can sometimes be handled separately. We can check the order record if you need help with an order while the account issue is reviewed. Please send the order number or checkout email. Do not send passwords, one-time codes, backup codes, private account links, or payment details. We will reply with the order-support step available from the record.

Adapt it safely

Replace unlock promises with one concrete support step.
Keep security-code handling strict: customers should never email codes.
Separate order help from account access outcomes when possible.
Use your own store policy before describing any account-support process.
