Create a One-Time Password Link
Need to send a password one time? Generate a secure password link that is encrypted in your browser, opens once, and self-destructs after a single view — no account, no app, no lasting copy.
Create a one-time secret link
Paste the secret, choose when it expires, then send the link.
End-to-End Encryption
Your password is encrypted in your browser before transmission. Not even we can see it—the decryption key never leaves your hands until you share the link.
View Once, Then Gone
Each password link can only be viewed once. After the recipient sees it, the password is permanently deleted from our servers—no traces left behind.
Instant Sharing
No account creation, email verification, or app installation. Generate a secure password link in seconds and share it via any channel.
Password Stays Hidden
Unlike email or chat where passwords remain visible forever, your password is revealed only once to the intended recipient, then vanishes.
Common Password Sharing Scenarios
WiFi Passwords
Share home or office WiFi passwords with guests without writing them down or texting them permanently.
Account Credentials
Send login credentials for shared accounts like Netflix, Spotify, or business tools to family or team members.
IT Support
Receive temporary passwords from IT help desks without them lingering in your email inbox forever.
New Account Setup
Share initial passwords when creating accounts for others, ensuring they can securely receive and change them.
Why a Password Link Is Safer Than Email, Chat, Screenshots, or Docs
Every traditional way of sending a password leaves a lasting copy someone can find later. A one-time password link does not.
- • Stays in inbox forever
- • Can be forwarded accidentally
- • Searchable by anyone with access
- • Backup copies on multiple servers
Text & Chat
- • Permanent message history
- • Synced across devices
- • Visible in notifications
- • Keyword-searchable by teammates
Screenshots & Docs
- • Screenshots saved to camera rolls
- • Shared docs visible to everyone with access
- • Lingers in cloud storage and backups
- • No way to revoke after sending
SnapPwd Password Link
- • Deleted after one view
- • End-to-end encrypted
- • No permanent records
- • Zero-knowledge architecture
Create a Secure Password Link
When you need to send a password one time, create a password link instead of pasting the password into chat. The recipient opens the link once, copies the password, and the encrypted secret is deleted.
Paste the Password
Enter the password or credential in SnapPwd. It is encrypted in your browser before anything is stored.
Send the Link
Share the generated link through Slack, email, SMS, or your support ticket. The message contains no reusable password.
One View, Then Gone
One-time password sharing here means secure password handoff, not generating OTP authentication codes for login flows.
Expiration and View Limits You Control
Every one-time password link is bound by two independent limits, so the password never lingers longer than it should.
One view, then deleted
The link can be opened a single time. The moment the recipient reveals the password, the encrypted payload is permanently deleted from our servers — there is no second view and the link can never be reused.
Choose how long it lasts
Set an expiry window from a preset of 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, or 2 weeks — or a custom date from 5 minutes up to 1 year out. If the link is never opened, it self-destructs when the timer runs out, whichever comes first.
Sharing credentials across a team? Send the link through Slack, email, or a support ticket — a short expiry keeps it from sitting in chat history after the handoff is done.

More Secure Credential Workflows
Password links are useful for one-time handoff. For developer credentials, use the same self-destructing workflow with stronger storage, rotation, and environment-specific controls.
Password Link Sharing FAQ
How do I create a password link?
Paste the password into the form above and SnapPwd encrypts it in your browser before anything is stored. You get back a one-time password link to copy. Send that link instead of the raw password—no account or installation required.
Can I send a password one time so it can't be reused?
Yes. Each password link can be opened only once. As soon as the recipient views it, the encrypted secret is permanently deleted from our servers, so the same link can never reveal the password again.
Is it safe to share a one-time password link?
It is far safer than pasting a password into a message. The password is end-to-end encrypted and the decryption key lives only in the link's URL fragment, which is never sent to our servers. We operate a zero-knowledge architecture, so even we cannot read what you share.
Why is a password link safer than email, chat, screenshots, or shared docs?
Email and chat keep the password searchable forever, copies sync across devices, and screenshots or shared docs can be forwarded to anyone. A one-time password link leaves no lasting copy: it self-destructs after a single view, so there is nothing left to find, forward, or leak later.
Is this the same as a one-time password (OTP) authentication code?
No. SnapPwd is for one-time password sharing—securely handing an existing password or credential to someone. It does not generate OTP / 2FA login codes for authentication flows.
How long does a one-time password link last?
You decide. Choose a preset expiry of 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, or 2 weeks, or set a custom date from 5 minutes up to 1 year out. The link is deleted as soon as it is viewed once or when the expiry time is reached—whichever happens first—so an unopened link never stays live indefinitely.
Do I need an account to share a password link?
No. There is no sign-up, email verification, or app install. You can create a secure password link and share it in seconds, completely free.
