Login Issues: Phone Number, PIN, Password

Cannot sign in? Try these steps in order.

Login problems are almost always one of three things: wrong number format, wrong password, or locked account.

When to use this

When you cannot get past the login screen.

Step-by-step

  1. Check phone format. Include country code: 237 for Cameroon, e.g. 237 6XX XXX XXX.
  2. Check caps lock. Passwords are case-sensitive.
  3. Forgot Password. Tap the link; a reset code is sent by SMS.
  4. PIN reset. A manager resets from Team > Staff.
  5. Account locked. Wait 5 minutes after 5 wrong tries.
  6. Still stuck. WhatsApp support: +237 6 92 87 18 49.

Common issues

  • SMS not arriving: confirm the phone number; check signal.
  • Wrong country code: update in account settings.
