Common Questions
Getting to the Passwords Section
- Log in to your Paige account at app.go-paige.com.
- In the top navigation bar, click Passwords.
- You'll land on the Passwords, Pins, and Codes page.
Adding a Password
From the Passwords page, you have two ways to start:
- Click the + Add Password button near the top right of the page.
- Or, click the Add + button directly on one of the category cards — Financial Account, Home Service, or Device Account. This will pre-fill the account type for you.
Either way, you'll be taken to the Add Password form.
Filling Out the Form
Required Fields
- Account Type — Use the dropdown to select the category that best fits. Your options are:
- Financial Account
- Home Service
- Device
- Digital Account
- Title — Give this entry a clear, recognizable name (for example, Chase Checking or Home Wi-Fi Router). This is what you'll see in your password list, so something descriptive tends to work best.
- Password — Enter the password for this account. It will be masked by default. You can click the show/hide toggle to reveal it as you type if you'd like to double-check your entry.
Optional Fields
These fields aren't required, but filling them in can be really helpful for whoever accesses your account later.
- Website Address — The URL for the account login page (for example, chase.com).
- Username — This will pre-fill with your Paige account email. Update it if the username for this account is different.
- Notes — A good place to add any extra context, like security question answers, PIN codes, or helpful instructions.
The Notes field is a great place to store PINs, passcodes, and security answers that don't fit neatly into a username/password format — like an ATM PIN or a phone unlock code.
Prefer Pen and Paper? There's an Option for That
If you have passwords written down somewhere — on a notepad, sticky note, or a printed sheet — you can photograph them and upload the image directly to this entry. Just use the Drag and drop files here or Browse Files area at the bottom of the form.
Not everyone stores passwords digitally, and that's completely fine. Snapping a photo of a handwritten list and uploading it here can be just as effective — it'll stay organized alongside your other entries and remain just as secure.
Saving Your Entry
Once you've filled in the fields you need:
- Review your entries — especially the password field — to make sure everything looks right.
- Click Save.
Your new password entry will now appear in your Passwords list.
Your entry is saved and encrypted. Only you — and any delegates you've designated — will ever have access to it.
If you need to start over or made a mistake, click Clear to reset all fields before saving. Once an entry is saved, you can edit it from your password list, but it's worth double-checking before you hit Save.
Common Questions
"Finding a Password You've Already Added"
Once you've added a few entries, you can use the Find a password search bar at the top of the Passwords page to locate any entry quickly. You can also filter by Account Type using the dropdown.
"What if I don't see the account type I need?"
If none of the three category cards — Financial Account, Home Service, or Device Account — quite fit what you're adding, try using the + Add Password button at the top of the page and selecting Digital Account from the Account Type dropdown. This category is a good catch-all for things like email accounts, social media, streaming services, and other online accounts.
