Set a new password
Enter a new password in both text boxes. The bar below the boxes will let you know how strong the password is. If the passwords are too weak or do not match, you will have to enter a new one.

After changing your password, ensure that you update your credentials on devices that use your password behind the scenes. If you fail to do this, your account could end up locked out after a number of failed authentication attempts. Some common places to update your password include WiFi devices (phone/laptop) that connect to Sage's WiFi and email clients on mobile phones.
