Verify your CNN account email
We'd like to make sure your account email address is correct. This way you'll get important emails about your account—like password reset instructions if you forget your password.
To verify your account email:
- Do one of the following:
- At the top of the screen, choose Resend verification link (only visible if your email still needs verification).
- Check your inbox for an email from CNN with the subject line: Verify your email address.
- Open this email and choose Verify.
- You'll get a confirmation screen that says: 'Thank you for verifying your email address.'
Didn't get the email?
If the verification email doesn't arrive within a few minutes:
- Search all folders in your inbox (including Promotions, Junk, and Spam) for an email from CNN.
- Repeat the verification steps again to send another email.
- Double-check the email address listed in the Account section of Settings. If you no longer have access to that email, please contact us.
