Core | Staff & Admin - Password Requirements & Reset

Written by Jessica Hamel

Who This Applies To

Staff and admin users in PushPress Core (Control Panel and Staff App). Members are unaffected unless they create a new password.

Password Requirements

All new passwords must meet these standards:

  • Minimum 8 characters

  • At least one uppercase letter (A-Z)

  • At least one lowercase letter (a-z)

  • At least one number (0-9)

  • At least one special character (!@#$%^&*)

  • Cannot be a commonly used password

Example of a strong password: MyGym2024!

If You're Prompted to Reset Your Password

If your current password doesn't meet the new standard, you'll see a reset prompt when you log in to Control Panel or Staff App.

  1. Click Create New Password on the prompt

  2. Enter your current password

  3. Create a new password meeting the requirements above

  4. Click Save

  5. You'll be logged back in immediately—no disruption to your work


You will need to check the email that you are logging into to find the reset code, and then you can fill in the new password and confirm password fields with a 12+ character password without common words.


Troubleshooting

Q: My password doesn't meet the requirements. What does that mean?

A: Your password needs to be stronger. Use at least 8 characters with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Avoid common passwords or repeated characters.

Q: Will resetting my password log me out from the Staff App?

A: No. The reset only appears at your next login to Control Panel or Staff App. If you're currently logged in, you'll stay logged in.

Q: I'm locked out. How do I get back in?

A: Go to the login page and select Forgot Password? to reset via email. If you don't receive an email, check your spam folder or contact support via messenger or support@pushpress.com.

Q: Why are you changing password rules?

A: Strong passwords are the best defense against unauthorized account access. This protects your gym, your members, and your payment data.

Q: Can I use the same password I use for other services?

A: We don't recommend it. Use a unique password for PushPress to keep your account secure.
