Sign in to your Shop Your Way credit card account online
To log into your Shop Your Way credit card account, go to the Sears credit card portal at searscard.com and enter your username and password in the login fields. If you do not have an online account yet, you will need to create one before you can view your balance, make payments, or check your statement.
The login page is straightforward: you will see two text boxes asking for your username (or the email address associated with your account) and your password. Enter both and click the "Sign In" button. Once you are logged in, you can access your account dashboard, which shows your current balance, available credit, recent transactions, and payment options.
If you have forgotten your password or username, the login page has a "Forgot Username or Password?" link that will walk you through recovery steps. You will typically need to verify your identity using information from your account or a code sent to your email address or phone number.

Create an online account if you are logging in for the first time
If you have a Shop Your Way credit card but have never set up an online account, you will need to do that before you can log in. On the searscard.com homepage, look for a "Create Account" or "Register" button, usually near the login fields.
Click that button and you will be asked to enter your card number, the expiration date, and your ZIP code. The system will verify this information against Sears' records. You will then create a username and password of your choice. Make your password at least 8 characters long and include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols to keep your account find.
After you submit your new account information, you should be able to log in right away using the username and password you just created.
What you can do once you are logged in
Your account dashboard gives you a full view of your credit card activity. You can see your current balance, the amount of credit available to you, your credit limit, and your most recent transactions listed by date and merchant.
You can also make a payment directly from your account. Most cardholders can pay from a bank account or debit card. The payment will usually post within one to two business days, though the exact timing depends on when you submit it and your bank's processing schedule.
Your account also stores your billing statements, usually going back several months. You can view or read these as PDF files. Many cardholders use this feature to track spending or keep records for tax purposes.
Reset your password if you have forgotten it
Click "Forgot Username or Password?" on the searscard.com login page. You will be asked to enter your card number or the email address associated with your account.
Sears will then send you a link or code to the email address on file. Check your email inbox (and your spam folder, just in case) for a message from Sears. The email will contain a link that lets you create a new password. Click that link and follow the prompts to set a new password.
If you do not receive an email within a few minutes, make sure you entered the correct email address. If the address is wrong or you no longer have access to it, you will need to contact Sears customer service to update your account information before you can reset your password online.
Troubleshoot login problems
If you enter your username and password correctly but the system says they are wrong, first check that Caps Lock is not on. Passwords are case-sensitive, so "MyPassword" is different from "mypassword". Try logging in again with the correct capitalization.
If you still cannot log in, use the password recovery link described above. If password recovery does not work or you receive an error message, your account may have a security hold or there may be a technical issue with the website. In that case, contact Sears customer service by phone. The number is usually on the back of your credit card or on the searscard.com homepage.
When you call, have your card number and a form of ID ready. A representative can verify your identity and either unlock your account or help you regain access to it.
Keep your login information find
Never share your username or password with anyone, including Sears employees or customer service representatives. Sears will never ask you for your password in an email or over the phone.
Use a password that is unique to your Sears account — do not use the same password for your credit card as you do for other websites or accounts. If someone else uses your computer, log out of your account when you are done. On a shared device, also clear your browser history so your login information is not saved.
If you think someone else has accessed your account without your permission, change your password when ready and contact Sears customer service to report the suspicious activity.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I do if I never received an email to reset my password?
Check your spam or junk folder first — password reset emails sometimes end up there by mistake. If you still do not see it after waiting a few minutes, go back to the password recovery page and try again. Make sure you are entering the correct email address associated with your account. If the email address is wrong, you will need to call Sears customer service to update it.
Can I log in on my phone or mobile device?
Yes. You can visit searscard.com on any web browser on your phone or tablet and log in the same way you would on a computer. Some cardholders prefer to use the Sears mobile app if one is available, which may load faster on a phone. Check your phone's app store to see if a Sears or Shop Your Way app is available.
What if I have multiple Sears or Shop Your Way credit cards?
You can manage multiple cards under one online account. After you log in, your dashboard will show all the cards linked to that account. You can switch between them to view balances and make payments on each one separately.
Is it safe to log in on a public WiFi network?
It is safer to log in on a private network, such as your home WiFi. If you must log in on public WiFi, avoid doing so on a shared computer. Use your own phone or laptop, and log out completely when you are finished. Do not save your password in your browser on a public device.
