If you are a new user and want to buy some games in the store, you will be asked for the pin code. The PIN you create for your account is used to verify your identity and simplify purchasing in the Oculus store. The PIN is associated with your account and all of your Meta Quest devices will have the same PIN.
But when I create an account in Meta Quest by using Facebook I have an issue. I haven’t asked to create a pin, but it asked for purchasing games in the store, but I was never set up early.
If you never create your PIN code or forgot Oculus pin use this way to restore it and set up your own one. You need to request an email with a link to reset it from the Oculus website.
