Login & 2FA problems
Fix sign-in problems — wrong business username, forgotten password, reset codes that don't arrive, 2FA codes that don't work, a lost authenticator phone, lockouts and sessions that keep ending.
"Invalid credentials"#
The business username, email and password must all match one active member.
- Business username is the shop's handle, the same for everyone (for example
shahtextiles) — not your own name. Ask the Owner, or use the login link from the welcome email (/app/login?business=…). - Email must be the one your account was created with. Members added by an Admin use the email the Admin entered.
- Passwords are case-sensitive; check Caps Lock.
- If the business username was changed recently, the old one no longer works. See Business username.
Forgotten password#
Use Forgot password? on the sign-in page. See First login & 2FA → Forgot your password?.
The reset code didn't arrive#
- For privacy the page always says If the account exists, a 6-digit reset code has been emailed (valid 10 minutes) — so a typo in the username or email means no email is sent. Check both.
- Look in Spam, Promotions and Updates folders for an email from Kapda Stock.
- Wait a minute, then request again. Only the newest code works.
"Reset code is invalid or has expired"#
Codes last 10 minutes and work once. Request a new one. After 5 wrong entries you see Too many attempts — request a new code.
"Too many requests. Please try again later."#
After 5 failed attempts in 15 minutes from one internet connection, sign-in pauses. Successful sign-ins do not count. Wait up to 15 minutes. Remember that all devices on the shop's Wi-Fi share one connection.
Security code (captcha) problems#
- Captcha verification failed. Please try again. — the characters were wrong or the code had been used. A new one appears; type it exactly.
- If the image does not load, refresh the page and check that nothing is blocking images.
Two-factor authentication#
"Invalid TOTP code"#
- Enter the code currently shown — codes change every 30 seconds.
- The phone's clock must be correct. Set date and time to automatic on the phone.
- Make sure you are reading the Kapda Stock entry, not another account in the authenticator.
"Your sign-in expired — enter your password again"#
The code step allows 5 minutes and 5 attempts. Start again from the password.
Lost or reset phone#
There is no self-service reset for a business account's authenticator. Contact support from the owner's registered email, with the business username, so the team can verify you and help you regain access.
Asked for a code every time#
A browser that passes 2FA is trusted for 30 days. You will be asked again if you use a private/incognito window, clear cookies, switch browser or device, or after 30 days.
"This account is no longer active. Please contact support."#
The member's access was removed on Team & Access. Ask the Owner or an Admin to add you again.
"Your account setup is incomplete. Please contact support."#
The workspace was not fully created at sign-up. Contact support.
Signed out unexpectedly#
- The app restores your session automatically after a reload. If it cannot — cookies blocked, private window, cleared site data — you return to the login page.
- If an Admin removed your access or changed your role, you may be signed out.
- Allow cookies for the Kapda Stock site; the session depends on a secure cookie.
Sent to the payment screen after signing in#
The subscription needs payment. See Grace period & past due.
