How Do I Reset My Yelp Password?
As a business account owner or a Yelp review, you may lose your password or decide to change your password for other reasons. If you forget your password, a Yelp password reset is a simple process. If you want to change your password intentionally, you can reset your Yelp password through the website or the mobile app.
Yelp is an online business review platform and business directory service headquartered in San Francisco. The platform publishes crowd sourced reviews from customers of the listed establishments.
To use Yelp, whether as a business owner or as a reviewer, you need to set up an account on the platform. Through your account you can write or respond to reviews. Your account as a business owner will then be rated according to the reviews.
It is often the case that yelp users forget their account passwords. The same goes for Yelpers as well as the business accounts. You may also decide to reset your password if you have been using the same one for too long or you are worried that your account has been compromised.
If you simply forgot your password, you should open the Yelp website and then click 'Forgot Password' on the site's homepage. You will be prompted to submit your email address and then click 'Reset Password.' Yelp will send you instructions as to how to rest your account password.
