Etsy doesn't collect your phone number when you place an order. As a buyer, the only place your phone number is used in your Etsy account is two-factor authentication.
How do I update the phone number I use for two-factor authentication?
Two-factor authentication is an optional security measure you can turn on or off at any time. If you used a phone number for two-factor authentication, you’re able to update it.
- Sign in and go to Account settings.
- Go to Security.
- If you have two-factor authentication turned on, turn it off. Enter the code sent to your current phone number to turn it off. If your current phone number is not accessible, use one of the backup codes you were provided with when you first set up two-factor authentication.
- To add a new phone number, turn two-factor authentication back on. Select SMS or Phone when prompted to pick an option.
- Enter your preferred phone number.
- Go to More.
- Under Account & app settings, select 2 Factor authentication.
