How can I protect my account’s password?
Password security starts with using a strong password. Toyota Financial Services already incorporates various requirements to ensure your password is secure, including:
- Length: Your password must be between 8 and 20 characters.
- History: Your password can’t be one of your previous 5 passwords.
- Username and repeating characters: Your password must be something other than your username and cannot repeat characters consecutively.
- Capitalization, numbers and more: Your password must include at least one capital letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character (ex: %); do not use spaces at the beginning or end.
To truly take your security to the next level, remember that using personal information in your password, like your child’s name, your spouse’s birthday, or your place of birth makes it easier for someone to figure it out.
Once you’ve created a password that’s both secure and compliant, consider storing your password in a secure place. Instead of emailing it to yourself, consider using a password manager app, which acts as a sort of virtual safe to store your passwords.
Finally, consider enabling two-factor authentication for your Toyota Financial Services Account. We can send you a one-time code to either the email or phone number associated with your account before each sign in for added security.
