Signing In with google option- won't turn off

I know this isn't really a Zazzle issue, more of a problem with Google, but the last few days I've been getting that annoying popup asking me to use Google to sign into Zazzle. I double checked my Google account settings, and I definitely have that option turned off, and I even cleared my cookies, but it still pops up every day. It does it both on my iPad and my computer! So I came on here hoping that maybe someone has found a solution that actually works?

The same has been happening with me, too, and yes, it's annoying.

But why don't you want to sign in using the Google account? 🤔

A number of us aren't overly fond of Google.

I find everything works much more cleanly when I sign in directly to Zazzle. For example, I don't see the captcha test very often. I disabled my Facebook log-in a long time ago when it got frustrating. Why was it frustrating? I can't recall.  As the famous quote says People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.. I don't remember the particulars I just remember signing in with Facebook made me feel bad. So I don't use Google to sign in either.

My Zazzle account is separate from Google, and doesn’t even use a gmail email. So I can’t sign in with Google, I need to use my email and password.

It is not only here.  It is happening across many platforms I use...

I too find it annoying...

I too have been experiencing this on other sites. Must be Google trying to increase their data load to sell to marketeers. It's always about the advertising dough.

I found this way and it worked for me, I hope it helps

1. Sign in to Google account

2. go to “Security”

3. scroll down till “Signing in to other sites”

4. choose “Signing in with Google”

5. Disable “Google account sign in prompts”

Just gave that a try. Thank you!

Yes, that’s the method I use. Like I said in my original post, I do have that option disabled, but I’m still getting the pop up!

Connie, after disabling this feature, I signed out from my Google account and restarted the device. Also I block pop-ups in settings of every browser I use. Unfortunately, I don't know what else can be done

Same here, when I signed in this morning. Oh well.

Actually, according to several tech sites that I follow, the website controls the popup, not Google. That google setting does something totally different. If this is actually a zazzle's choice, and it looks like it is, then it's pretty awful website design because that popup interferes with the actual login screen---which already has a google sign-in option. The duckduckgo browser apparently blocks the google popup by default if you're willing to switch browsers.

I finally resorted to using uBlock Origin to block the Google sign-in popup. It works good, but you have to add in the filter to do so manually. I don't remember what it was off-hand: I had to do a search ti find out what code to use.
