What should I do if I forget my PIN code or enter it incorrectly too many times?

Learn what happens if you forget your PIN code or exceed the maximum number of entry attempts.

Unfortunately, you cannot recover your PIN code if you forget or lose it. Therefore, it’s crucial to write it down and store it somewhere safe when you first set up your Burner.

You have 20 attempts to enter your PIN code correctly. If you exceed this limit, your Burner will lock and become permanently unusable, and you will not be able to regain access once it is locked. The counter resets after a successful PIN entry, so if you enter the correct PIN before reaching 20 failed attempts, your remaining attempts return to the full 20.
