Yodel's Password Requirements
Your password must be at least 8 characters long.
Do not include your name, email, or the Yodel company name within the password.
If you create a password that is 16 characters or longer there is no further password requirements.
If your password is between 8 and 16 characters long, then you must also include at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character.
Password Managers
It is recommended by many national and global organizations to use a password manager so that you can create unique and complex passwords without having to remember them yourself. This can be done by using your browser's features or by downloading a popular password management tool. Good password managers have support for all your devices, making it much easier to be secure in all your accounts. The National Cyber Security Centre in the U.K. has a nice list of reasons a password manager is a good idea.
