Why can't I set a passcode?
In order to use LINE Pay safely, you're required to set a 6-digit passcode.
Please be aware that you cannot set one if:
• The same number is being used three or more times consecutively
E.g. 111***
• There are less than two kinds of numbers, even if they are not consecutive
E.g. 202020
• There is a set of three numbers in ascending or descending order
E.g. 123***, 876***
• The last four digits of the phone number registered to LINE Pay is used
E.g. If your registered phone number is 090-1234-5678, your passcode can't include 5678.

I can't reset my passcode

2. Follow the onscreen guidance to reset your passcode.
Note: The methods available to verify your identity will differ depending on the status of your registration.
If the screen to delete your LINE Pay account appears instead of the "Forgot your passcode?" option, it means your LINE Pay account hasn't been registered with the information required for identity verification.

- Deleting your LINE Pay account will not affect your LINE account or Points.
Please contact Customer Care if:
• Your LINE Pay account is restricted for entering the wrong information five or more times when trying to verify your identity.
• You don't know or can't use the phone number registered to LINE Pay.
• You can't reset your passcode after following the onscreen guidance.
