The shopify-account component for customer accounts is now a Theme Store requirement

In February 2026, we introduced the shopify-account component, which lets customers sign in and manage their account directly on the storefront. It supports passwordless sign-in, automatic Sign in with Shop recognition, and social sign-in providers. Once signed in, customers can reach their account pages from the account menu.

As of today, all new themes and updates to existing themes submitted to the Shopify Theme Store must include the component in their header, visible on both desktop and mobile, so customers get a consistent experience on any device.

Additionally, legacy customer accounts have been deprecated, and themes are no longer required to include legacy customer account template files.
