Changing your Kroger EUID (Enterprise User ID) password is a crucial step for maintaining the security of your employee accounts and ensuring seamless access to Kroger's internal systems like Feed and ExpressHR. Whether you've forgotten your password, it's expired, or you simply want to update it for better security, this comprehensive guide will walk you through the process step-by-step.
The Importance of a Strong EUID Password
Before we dive into the "how-to," let's briefly touch on why a strong password matters. Your EUID grants you access to sensitive information and company resources. A weak password makes your account vulnerable to unauthorized access, which could lead to data breaches, identity theft, or disruptions in your work. So, think of your password as a digital shield protecting your professional persona at Kroger.

Ready to secure your Kroger account? Let's get started!
Step 1: Identify Your Access Point - Where are you trying to change it from?
This is the very first and most critical question to ask yourself. The method for changing your Kroger EUID password can vary slightly depending on where you are trying to do it from.
-
Are you at a Kroger store on a company computer? This is often the easiest and most reliable method.

Are you trying to change it from home on your personal device (computer or phone)? This is also possible but might have a few more nuances.
Once you've identified your access point, proceed to the relevant section below.
Step 2: Accessing the Password Management Portal
Tip: Patience makes reading smoother.

Log in to a Company Computer:

-
Enter Your Old Password:
-
The system will prompt you to enter your current (old) EUID password. Type it carefully.
-
-
Create Your New Password:

This is where you'll define your new, strong password. Pay close attention to the password requirements (see "Important Password Requirements" below).

You should receive a confirmation message that your password has been successfully updated.

Sub-heading: "Forgot Password" Scenario (When You Can't Log In)
If you've completely forgotten your EUID password and cannot log in to feed.kroger.com, you'll need to use the "Forgot Password" functionality.
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.
-
Navigate to the Login Page:
-
Go to feed.kroger.com or
federation.kroger.com/identity/login -
On the login screen, look for a link that says "Forgot Password?" or "Can't access your account?" and click it.
-
-
Identify Yourself:
-
The system will ask for your Employee ID or Username (EUID). Enter this information.
-
You may also be prompted for your registered email address or other identifying information.
-
-
Verification Method:
-
Kroger will likely use a security measure to verify your identity. This could involve:
-
Sending a One-Time Password (OTP) to your registered email address or phone number.
-
Answering security questions you previously set up.
-
A push notification to a registered device (if you have Okta Verify set up).
-
-
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the verification.

Once your identity is verified, you will be prompted to create a new password.

Click the "Reset Password" or "Continue" button.
-
You should receive a confirmation that your password has been successfully reset.
-
Step 4: Important Password Requirements & Best Practices
To ensure your new Kroger EUID password is secure and accepted by the system, keep the following in mind:
-
Length: Most secure passwords require a minimum number of characters, often 8-12 or more. Aim for at least 12 characters.
-
Complexity: Your password should typically include a mix of:
-
Uppercase letters (A-Z)
-
Lowercase letters (a-z)
-
Numbers (0-9)
-
Special characters (e.g., !, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *)
-
-
Uniqueness: Do not reuse passwords from other accounts (personal email, banking, social media).
-
Avoid Personal Information: Do not use easily guessable information like your name, birthdate, employee ID, or common words.
-
Regular Changes: Kroger's system might require you to change your password periodically (e.g., every 80-90 days). It's a good security practice to change it even if not strictly enforced.
Step 5: Test Your New Password
After successfully changing your password, it's always a good idea to test it immediately.
-
Log out of any current sessions.
-
Attempt to log in again using your EUID and your newly set password.
-
If you can log in successfully, congratulations! Your password change is complete.
-
If you encounter issues, double-check your typing. If problems persist, you may need to repeat the "Forgot Password" steps or contact support.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
-
"IAM is grayed out on mobile": This has been a reported issue. Try accessing feed.kroger.com from a desktop computer or use the "Forgot Password" option.
-
"Password reset only works on store computers": While many actions can be done remotely, for certain deeply integrated system aspects, Kroger might still require a store computer for initial setup or complex resets. If you're stuck, try a store computer.
-
"Account locked": If you try to log in with an incorrect password too many times, your account might get locked. You'll typically need to wait a set period (e.g., 15-30 minutes) or use the "Forgot Password" option to unlock and reset it.
-
"Still can't log in after changing password":
-
Double-check Caps Lock. Passwords are case-sensitive.
-
Clear your browser's cache and cookies. Sometimes old login credentials can be cached.
-
Try a different browser.
-
Restart your device.
