Resetting your password

Forgot your password? Password resets can be done by following these steps:

  2. Enter the Ko-fi handle/username or the email address linked to the Ko-fi page to receive the reset link.

What to do if the password reset link doesn't arrive

Creators who haven't received their reset link can try these steps:

  1. Check that the reset link isn't in the spam/junk folder.
  2. Confirm that the email address the reset link is being sent to is the one linked to the Ko-fi page. It's typically the address that already receives emails from Ko-fi.
  3. If the link still hasn't arrived, please submit a support ticket for assistance.

 

What to do if the password reset link shows an error page

If a creator opens their reset link and sees the error message "Oops. We hit a small glitch. We'll fix it as soon as we possibly can.", they can try opening the reset link in another browser or on another device.

 

How to reset a password when logging in with Twitter, Twitch, Google, or Facebook

Creators who log in with Twitter, Twitch, Google, or Facebook can still reset their Ko-fi password.

A creator's Ko-fi page is linked to the email address they use to log in to that social account. They can request a password reset for their Ko-fi page, and the reset link will be sent to that email address.

Creators who want to change their login method can read the help article on updating a Ko-fi account email address.
