Update or Reset Your Account Password
There are two reasons you may need to update your password:
- You forgot your password and need to reset it
- You have access to your current password, but you want to update it for security purposes
In this article, we’ll show you how to do either option. But first, you’ll need to pick a new password:
Pick a Strong Password
Requirements:
- Must include a number
- Must be at least 8 characters long
Suggestions:
- Include at least 1 capital letter with your lowercase lettering.
- Include at least 1 of the following (!@#$%^&*)
- Never use actual words or names. We know they’re easy to remember, but they’re also easy for people to hack. Slap together some letters and numbers and be sure to save it somewhere!
- If possible, use a password manager such as 1Password. This way you can save and generate strong passwords in there and update them simply whenever you’d like. Learn more about password managers

Can’t log into your account or forgot your password?
If you need to gain access to your account but do not have your login information, you’ll need to reset the password on your account.
