QuickAuth for Shopware 6

Forgotten password? Checkout keeps going.

When returning customers forget their password, they often switch to guest checkout or abandon the purchase. A one-time code keeps the order tied to their account, without interrupting checkout for a password reset.

  • Fewer login drop-offs at checkoutNo password search. No reset during checkout.
  • Email first, SMS optionalEmail by default, SMS as an extra login path.
  • Password login remains availableWorks with existing accounts, without replacing the normal login.

The problem

Where returning customers drop off

A forgotten password often leads not to a reset, but to abandonment or guest checkout.

  • Login failsReturning customers may not remember their password at the moment of purchase.
  • Reset is painful on mobileA password reset takes customers out of checkout and into email, especially awkward on mobile.
  • Guest checkout instead of account loginMany fall back to guest checkout, and the order remains unlinked from their account.

In comparison

Password reset, magic link, or one-time code

Returning customers are already familiar with password resets and magic links. Here is where the one-time code fits.

Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions

  • Is SMS required?

    No. Email is the default. SMS is an optional, additional login path you can enable per sales channel.

  • What happens after the customer enters the code?

    The customer is signed in and can complete the purchase right away, without a password-reset detour.

  • Does QuickAuth replace password login?

    No. Normal password login stays in place. The one-time code is an additional path, not a forced switch.

  • Is QuickAuth suitable for B2C and B2B shops?

    Yes. QuickAuth adds a one-time-code login by email or SMS and works for any customer account, whether your shop serves B2C, B2B, or both. The existing password login stays in place.

  • Can I use email only?

    Yes. You can disable SMS entirely and run QuickAuth on email alone.

  • How does QuickAuth work on mobile?

    Code entry is built for small screens and supports automatic filling of the code.

  • How are codes protected from abuse?

    Through configurable per-window rate limits and an adjustable code lifetime.

  • How long does setup take?

    Installed and activated like any Shopware 6 extension. Email login runs without an external service; for SMS you add a gateway connection.
