## Verified facts

Checked against Meetup's own documentation on 2026-08-20. Fields absent below are ones Meetup does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://www.meetup.com/account/forgot/ |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a link |

## Steps

1. **Open Meetup's password reset page** at https://www.meetup.com/account/forgot/. This is where the "Forgot password?" link on the sign-in screen leads.
2. **Enter the email address on the account.** If you are not sure which address that is, search your inboxes for mail from meetup.com; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Open the reset email and follow its link.** Links are single-use and short-lived; if nothing arrives in a few minutes, check spam and confirm the address.
4. **Choose a strong new password.** 16+ random characters, and never one used anywhere else.
5. **Store it somewhere sealed**: a password manager or encrypted vault, not a note and not a screenshot.

## Common problems

- **Third-party login accounts have no password to reset.** If you registered via Facebook, Google, or Apple, your account has no Meetup password. You cannot reset it; sign in using the social account buttons instead. (https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002876991-Resetting-a-password)
- **Multiple reset requests trigger temporary account block.** Submitting multiple password reset requests in a short period will temporarily block your account for security reasons. (https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408029829005-Why-can-t-I-log-into-my-account)
- **Reset email may arrive in spam folder or take up to ten minutes.** Password reset emails are sent from info@accounts.meetup.com and may be delayed or filtered as spam. Check spam folders and allow up to ten minutes for delivery. (https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002860872-I-didn-t-receive-a-password-reset-email)
- **Password must contain uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols with minimum 10 characters.** Your new password must be at least 10 characters long and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

## Doing it automatically

Repass connects to Gmail once, finds the accounts you have, and runs this flow for you in your own browser. Passwords are generated on your device and encrypted before they are stored; Repass also holds a key that can unwrap the vault, so signing in is enough to open it. It pauses and hands over when a site asks for a CAPTCHA or a code.
