How To Recover A Pinterest Account and Password?

When I first got started with Pinterest I didn't know how to use it properly but quickly amassed lots of followers and views because I used Tailwind and uploaded Pins every day.

Then I became a bit more savvy and streamlined my Pinning Strategy

Then tailed off Pinning...Huge mistake.

After a year of not Pinning, I got into my Pinterest account (or so I thought) and noticed most of the Pins in my feed were about fashion clothing. I would check it about twice a month to look at my feed.

Then I clicked on my Pinterest account from my WA Profile and was surprised to discover that this was a second account in Pinterest which was different from the one I had been scouring all year.

How did this happen? I had made 2 different Pinterest accounts - one under my name and one with the title of my website.

The Pinterest account under my name has 0 followers, but was showing fashionable clothing in its feed.

The active Pinterest account has over a thousand monthly views which has been dwindling. nIt used to be over 5,000 views when I was Pinning every day.

What am I trying to say? I've forgotten the Password to my second Pinterest account! And can't log in...

So if you have 2 Pinterest accounts, make sure you keep your passwords and did you know you can even connect them? However it is better to have the same email address for both of them.

Do not be like me - having 2 email addresses for different Social Media accounts - It is confusin!

If anyone knows how to recover an active Pinterest account, do let me know.

Thank you!

Stella, the only way to recover your Pinterest account is to RESET your PASSWORD. If you remember the email of your Business account, asking for the reset password is very easy!

Thanks Suomii, but that's the problem...

I've forgotten the email address of my business account. If I do remember it, I don't have access to that email anymore...

I've contacted Pinterest support, so should have any answer by tomorrow...

if you don't have access to that email anymore, that is the real issue. Hope the support can solve it!
