How to reset your Hostinger account password

Requesting a password reset to your account email if you forgot your password

Updated 3 weeks ago

If you can still access your account and only need to change your password, refer to this guide: How to change your Hostinger account password.

If you cannot log in and you are not using a social login method, you can reset your password by email.

Step 1 – Open the Forgot password page

Go to the Hostinger login page:

Click on Forgot password? below the login form.

You can also access the reset form directly:

The links above work for all Hostinger brands, regardless of the Hostinger site where your account was created (e.g., hostinger.in, hostinger.co.uk, etc.). 🗺️

Step 2 – Reset Hostinger password

On the next screen, enter the email address associated with your Hostinger account, and click Send Reset Email. A password reset link will be sent to your email.

When will the email arrive?

In most cases, you will receive the password reset link in a few minutes. However, it can land in your Spam, Updates, or other inboxes – make sure to check them all.

In rare cases, the password reset email might be delayed by your email provider. We recommend waiting up to one hour before trying to reset the password again.

If you have requested a password reset several times, make sure to use the link from the latest email you received, as each new request overrides the previous one.

Resetting the password for social login accounts

If you are using a social login method to access your account, such as Google, Facebook, or GitHub, the Forgot password option will not send a reset link. Your Hostinger account is accessed through your social account credentials.

If you forgot your social login password, follow the recovery steps provided by the platform:

You may also contact the support team of your social login platform for further assistance.
