Using your NetGuard Token with Client Fund Service

If you need help, you can call 0800 269 4242, Mon-Fri, 8am-6pm or +64 4 9318234 if you’re overseas (international toll charges may apply).

How to reset the passwords for other users if you are an Administrator

As an Administrator, you can reset the password for all other users, except your own. To reset passwords, visit the Administration section of online Client Fund Service, and select User List from the menu on the left-hand side.

You have the option to ‘reset password’ for each authoriser and sub user. Once the password is reset, the user must log in to online Client Fund Service within 3 days or the temporary password will expire.

What to do if you are an Administrator and have forgotten your password

If you have forgotten your Administrator Client Fund Service password, you can:

  • get another Administrator to reset your password. It is recommended that you have two Administrators as this provides a backup Administrator to reset each other’s passwords, should one of you become locked out
  • complete the Request a new Client Fund Service Password form. You can find this form any time, by selecting Online Help link on Client Fund Service login screen.
