  4. Enter the updated details.

If you need to correct information on an existing order, contact Rootsy Support promptly.

5. How to Review Your Order History

Your Rootsy account provides access to information about purchases made through the marketplace.

To review your orders:

  1. Sign in to your buyer account.

  2. Open your order history.

  3. Locate the purchase you want to review.

  4. Select the relevant order.

Accurate shipping information is important for successful delivery.

If address management is available in your account settings, review and update your saved delivery information before placing a new order.

Check the following:

  • Full recipient name.

  • Street address.

  • Apartment, suite, or unit number.

  • City and province or territory.

  • Postal code.

  • Other required delivery details.

Rootsy currently supports shipping within Canada.

If you have already placed an order and discover an address error, contact Customer Support promptly.

Changing a saved address does not necessarily modify an existing shipping label or shipment.

7. How to Change or Reset Your Password

If you know your password and want to change it, check the available account security settings.

If you have forgotten your password, use the password recovery option on the Rootsy login page, where available.

For security:

  • Choose a strong, unique password.

  • Avoid reusing passwords from other websites.

  • Never share password-reset links.

  • Do not disclose one-time verification codes.

  • Contact Rootsy Support if the recovery process does not work.

Rootsy representatives should not need your account password to investigate an account-related support request.

  4. Use the available password recovery option if necessary.

  5. Try accessing the website using an updated browser.

  6. Contact Rootsy Customer Support if the issue continues.

If you suspect that someone else has accessed your account, report the concern promptly.
