Accessing Account Self-Service

To open Account Self-Service, go to the login page, and then click Trouble logging in, located toward the lower-left of the page.

You can now select the type of help you need from the four main options. You can also click Account FAQs to go to the Nexon Support Center and review account-related articles, or click Back to return to the login page.

Verifying account ownership

To use Account Self-Service, you must be able to confirm ownership of your account either via a verification method (email, SMS, or Authenticator App) or by answering questions on the verification form. Verifying your account details is required to help keep your account secure.

If using the verification form, providing as much information as possible helps increase your chances of completing your selected task via the tool. However, if there is not enough information, or the system cannot verify the information provided, you will be redirected to contact Customer Support for further assistance.

Reset Your Password

If you have forgotten your password, or you just want to make your account more secure, use this option to change your password.

1. From the Self-Service main page, click Reset Your Password.
2. Based on the current status of the email account registered to your Nexon account, do one of the following:
   
   
   • Active email (you can access this mailbox)
     1. In Email Address, enter your email, and then click Next.
        The Verify Your Account window is displayed.
        To confirm your identity, a verification code is sent to either your email address or mobile phone. If using the Authenticator App, use that 6-digit code instead.
     2. Enter the verification code.
        
        
   • Inactive email (you cannot access this mailbox)
     1. Click No longer have access to this email if your email is closed, obsolete, or otherwise not accessible.
        
        The Verify Account Ownership window is displayed.
     2. Fill out as much information as you can. If you are unsure of an answer, leave the field blank.
     3. If prompted, confirm or change the email address registered to your account, and then click Update.
        
        
3. In New Password, enter a password that meets the password policy requirements.

     2. Enter the corresponding information, and then click Next.
        The Verify Your Account window is displayed.
        To confirm your identity, a verification code is sent to your mobile phone. If using the Authenticator App, use that 6-digit code instead.
