Protect your password
Are you having trouble logging in? If you've incorrectly entered your password multiple times, you'll be locked out of your account and will need to reset it. You can also change your password to enhance your security at any time.
Do not reuse passwords
Use long, unique passwords for all your online accounts. Reusing a password for multiple websites is never a good idea. If hackers obtain your password, they will first check if it works for other websites. It's also best to change your passwords if you know or suspect they've been compromised.
Do not share your passwords
Fidelity will never ask you for your password. If you receive a communication asking for your login credentials, do not respond, as it is not from Fidelity. Fidelity representatives will never have knowledge of your encrypted password.

What to avoid when creating a password
Your password shouldn't be easy to guess, so avoid using any personal information, such as your name, birthday, Social Security number, wedding anniversary, or other information that's easily attained via a search engine. In addition, don't use a component of your username in your password.
When setting up a password, you should also avoid using sequential or repetitive characters (i.e., 12345 or aaaaa), or any commonly used words (e.g. password or p@ssw0rd.)
More ways to protect your account
We highly recommend that you enroll your account in multi-factor authentication (MFA). This additional layer of security goes beyond a traditional username and password to protect your account. Learn more about the various MFA methods that are available to you.
