Set your Okta password

1
Check your personal email

On Day 1, you'll receive an email from mission-control@squareup.com in your personal email with a temporary link to set your initial Block password. You won't be able to continue until this email arrives.

2
Open the link on your personal device

Use your personal device (phone or personal computer) to open the link.

3
Create your Okta password

Follow the prompts to create your Okta password.

4
Stop there

Once your password is set, close the page and return to your Block laptop.

Choose a strong password and remember it
You will need this password during device setup.
Do NOT set up MFA on your personal device
After setting your password, Okta will automatically prompt you to set up a security method (MFA). Do not set up Okta Verify, FastPass, or any other security method on your personal device — just close the page. You will enroll your YubiKey as your security method on your Block laptop during setup.

Grab your YubiKey

Keep your YubiKey handy

During device setup, you will enroll your YubiKey (a small USB security key) as your phishing-resistant MFA method. It should have been included with your laptop.
