Buy Gmail Accounts With App Password

For mail software

What the app password is for

Mail software cannot type a six-digit code. An app password gets around that: it is a separate 16-letter password tied to one account, and a mail client, a script that reads a mailbox or a tool that sends through Gmail signs in with it over IMAP or SMTP, with no second step. Every account on this listing arrives with one already generated. The software side works before you touch the web sign-in.

• An app password on every account in the order, 16 lowercase letters
• 2-Step Verification is on: Google issues app passwords to no other kind of account
• Backup codes on some batches, for signing in on the web from a new device
• Most batches are accounts registered years ago, but this listing promises no age
• Server settings: imap.gmail.com on port 993, smtp.gmail.com on port 465 or 587

The browser side

If you also want the account in a browser

Plenty of buyers only ever reach the mailbox through software. For them the app password is the whole job. Browser access is another matter: Google usually asks a new device for the second step, and what answers it depends on the batch your order came from.

• Batches with a 2FA key: make the code from the key, as the sentence under the buy box shows
• Batches with backup codes: each 8-digit code gets you past one prompt, then it is spent
• Batches with neither: stay with IMAP and SMTP, where the app password needs no second step

App password or account password: which one goes where

Two passwords come with every account. Each opens a different door, and putting the wrong one in the wrong place is the usual reason a first setup fails.

Based on how Google handles app passwords at the time of writing. Google can change which apps and account types may use them.

Reading the line

Which field is which

Everything for one account sits on a single line, split by colons. Each supplier orders them its own way, so go by what a field looks like, not where it sits.

A listing promises only what its page says. Fields beyond that are a bonus of the batch.

When it does not work

Three problems buyers hit first

A prompt on the first sign-in is Google meeting a new device, and it usually clears. Accounts that fail as delivered are replaced when reported within 24 hours.

The 24-hour window starts at delivery. It covers what arrives broken; a password or key you change yourself falls outside it.

Within 24 hours

Test the app password before the window closes

The replacement window covers an address, password or app password that fails as delivered. Test the software side first, since that is what this listing sells.

1. Add the account to a mail client or test script: the full Gmail address as the username, the app password as the password, imap.gmail.com on port 993 with SSL.
2. Check that the inbox folders load, then send one message to yourself through smtp.gmail.com.
3. Need the browser as well? Open gmail.com, enter the account password, and clear any prompt with a code made from the key or one backup code.
4. A refused app password or a disabled notice counts as a failed delivery: flag that account on its order page before 24 hours have passed.

FAQ

Questions about this listing

Why did my app password stop working after I changed the password?

Google does that on purpose. A new account password revokes every app password made under the old one. Sign in on the web, open App passwords in the security settings and create a fresh one for each program.

Does every account on this listing have 2-Step Verification on?

Yes. Google creates app passwords only on accounts with 2-Step Verification switched on. What varies is what you get for the web: a 2FA key on some batches, backup codes on others. That part is not promised.

Are these old Gmail accounts?

Most batches behind this listing were registered several years back, and the line often names the year. This listing does not check age, though. When a minimum age matters, choose the 2FA offer instead, where every account clears a one-year floor.

Can I use the accounts for bulk sending?

The app password lets software send as the account, within the daily limits Google sets for any Gmail address. Unsolicited mass mail breaks Google's rules and gets accounts suspended, and a suspension for that is not covered by the replacement window.
