Updating Your Hover Account Contact Email Address

The email address on your Hover account is where we send renewal notices, password resets, and other important service updates, so it's worth keeping current. Adding a backup email address gives you another way to recover your login if you ever lose access to your main inbox. This article walks you through updating both.

Primary and backup email addresses

Your Hover account has a primary contact email used for renewal notices, password resets, and account updates. You can also add a backup email address as a second recovery option in case you lose access to your primary inbox.

Before you begin

• Have access to your current email inbox: You may need to open a confirmation email as part of the update, depending on your account's verification settings.
• Choose a backup email you can access long-term: avoid using an address tied to a service you might lose access to later.

Step 1: Update your primary contact email

1. Sign in to your Hover control panel using your chosen method of two-step sign-in.
2. Select Settings from the navigation bar.
3. In the Contact Info section, select Edit next to your email address.
4. Enter your new email address, then select Save changes.

Step 2: Add or update a backup email

1. In the Contact Info section, select Edit next to Backup email.
2. Enter the backup email address.
3. Select Save changes.
