Changing the account password

Change your Metals account password in just a few steps!

When should you change your account password?

If you receive notifications about data breaches affecting services where you've used the same or similar passwords, please change your Metal account password immediately. This will prevent bad actors from accessing your metal account.

You should also change it when you see any suspicious activity anywhere you've used the same or a similar password. Even if the strange activity is later on linked back to you doing something, it's always better to be safe than sorry!

How can you change your password on Metal?

1. Go into your account settings on metal

Start by going into your account settings on Metal, which you can enter by first pressing your name in the right top [1], and then clicking on My Account [2]

2. Input your new password

We reccomend that your password fits the following criteria:

• At least 12 characters long

• Contains lowercase, and uppercase letters, as well as numbers, and special characters like !@#$%

If possible, you should use a password manager, which will let you make brute force proof passwords, as well as make the process of having diffrent passwords everywhere way simpler.
