How do I set a password if I signed up with Google?
Last updated:
You can sign in to the Sign Customiser merchant admin with Google, or with your email address and password.
If you created your account with Google, you can add a password to the same account. Google sign-in keeps working afterwards.
Sign in with Google
-
Open the Sign Customiser login page.
-
Select Sign in with Google.
-
Choose the Google account linked to your Sign Customiser account.
Sign in with email and password
-
Open the Sign Customiser login page.
-
Enter your email address and password.
-
Select Log in.
Set a password if you signed up with Google
An account created with Google starts without a password. You can add one from your profile settings while you are signed in.
-
Sign in with Google.
-
Open Settings, then Profile.
-
Find the Set a password section. It asks for a new password and a confirmation. It does not ask for a current password, because your account does not have one yet.
-
Enter your new password twice, then select Set password.
You can now sign in with your email address and password. Google sign-in still works, so you can use whichever suits you.
If the section asks for a Current Password, your account already has one. Use the reset steps below if you cannot remember it.
Reset a forgotten password
Important
Use the exact email address for the account you want to change. If you have more than one Sign Customiser account, a reset sent to a different address will not change the password for the account you need.
-
Open the Sign Customiser login page.
-
Select Forgot your password?
-
Enter the exact email address for the account you want to change.
-
Select Email Password Reset Link.
-
Open the latest password reset email and use its link within 60 minutes.
-
On the Reset Password page, type the same email address again. The link does not fill in the email field for you.
-
Enter and confirm your new password, then select Reset Password.
Reset links expire after 60 minutes. If a link has expired, return to the login page and request a new one. An expired link does not mean password reset is broken.
This route also works if you signed up with Google and cannot sign in at all. It sets a password on your existing account and leaves your Google sign-in in place.
