## Verified facts

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

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://www.vrbo.com/en/help/articles/reset-my-password |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a code |
| Old password required | no |

## Steps

1. **Open Vrbo's password reset page** at https://www.vrbo.com/en/help/articles/reset-my-password. 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 vrbo.com; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Enter the verification code** Vrbo emails you.
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

- **Password reset link expires after 24 hours.** The password reset link sent via email is valid for only 24 hours. If you don't click it within that time, you must request a new reset email and clear your cache and cookies first. (https://help.vrbo.com/articles/How-do-I-reset-my-Traveler-Account-password)
- **Email address must match account email to receive reset code.** The email address you enter must match exactly the one used on your account, or you will not receive the password reset email containing the code. (https://help.vrbo.com/articles/reset-my-password)
- **Account locks after five incorrect 2FA code entries.** If you enter an incorrect two-factor authentication code five times, your account will lock and you must contact Vrbo Customer Service to regain access. (https://help.vrbo.com/articles/questions-about-two-factor-authentication)
- **Password cannot contain common sequences or terms.** Passwords cannot contain commonly used terms like 'password', 'dog', or 'homeaway', and cannot have series like '123' or 'abcd'. (https://help.vrbo.com/articles/How-do-I-reset-my-Traveler-Account-password)

## 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.
