Account & Profile
How do I create an account/log in?
Getting started or logging in with Picksy is simple.
- Visit picksy.com and select Join Now. If you already have an account, select Log In.
- Enter your email address.
-
Picksy will send you:
- A 5-digit verification code
- A secure “magic link” for instant login
You can log in using either method:
-
Option 1: Magic Link
- Click the button in your email to log in automatically.
- Important: The magic link only works in the same browser you used to start signing up. For example, if you start on a desktop, make sure you open the email in the same desktop browser—not on your phone.
-
Option 2: 5-Digit Code
- Return to the Picksy tab and manually enter the 5-digit code sent to your email.

I can’t log in — what should I do?
If you’re having trouble accessing your Picksy account, try the troubleshooting steps below.
Check Your Email
If you can't find the 5-digit code in your inbox, look in your Spam or Junk folder. Note: Your magic link and 5-digit login code are valid for 30 minutes. If you request a new code, all previous codes will be deactivated. Be sure to double-check that you entered the correct email address!
Refresh Your Browser
Temporary login issues can often be fixed by:
- Clearing your browser cache
- Opening Picksy in an Incognito or Private browsing window
- Refreshing the page and trying again
Prevent Browser Auto-Fill Issues
Some browsers may auto-fill an old password into the 5-digit code field. If this happens:
- Clear the field completely
- Manually type your 5-digit login code
Check Email or Firewall Restrictions
To help ensure delivery of Picksy login emails:
- Add no-reply@auth.picksy.com to your contacts or safe senders list
- If using Picksy at work, ask your IT department to whitelist the domain: @auth.picksy.com
Verify Your Internet Connection
Make sure you have a stable internet connection. If needed, try reconnecting to Wi-Fi or refreshing your network connection.
Still Need Help?
If you’ve tried the steps above and still can’t access your account, please contact our Customer Support team here.
Can I merge accounts?
No—Picksy does not support merging multiple accounts at this time.
Because each account is linked to a specific email address and phone number, we recommend choosing one primary account to save products, organize collections, and manage your preferences.
