Bitwarden Launches Cupid Vault for Secure Password Sharing

Bitwarden has launched Cupid Vault, a new feature designed to help users securely share and revoke access to passwords with their partners, family, and close friends.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, this free tool allows individuals to share login credentials while maintaining security, ensuring that trust in relationships doesn’t come at the cost of cybersecurity.

Bitwarden, the popular open-source password manager, announced the feature as a solution for the modern dilemma of digital trust. Whether it’s sharing streaming services, food delivery accounts, or travel apps, Cupid Vault provides a safer alternative to sending passwords via text or email.

According to Bitwarden, 56% of people admit to sharing streaming account credentials with loved ones — an act that can become risky if relationships change. With Cupid Vault, users can effortlessly manage shared access and revoke permissions when needed, ensuring that passwords remain under control even if circumstances shift.

At its core, Cupid Vault is built on Bitwarden’s free-tier capabilities, which allow unlimited logins across unlimited devices. The new feature leverages Bitwarden’s “Organization” function, enabling a two-person shared vault where one user can store and manage credentials while granting access to another person. If needed, the original user can revoke access at any time, providing a seamless way to maintain security without resetting passwords or creating new accounts. The process works both ways, allowing either person in the shared vault to manage and revoke permissions.

Bitwarden has positioned itself as a privacy-focused and security-first alternative to proprietary password managers. Known for its end-to-end encryption and open-source foundation, the company aims to provide accessible and robust security solutions for individuals, businesses, and teams. The Cupid Vault feature is free to use, aligning with Bitwarden’s commitment to offering essential security tools without a paywall.

To use Cupid Vault, log in to your Bitwarden account, create a free 2-person shared vault using Bitwarden’s “Organization” feature, and then invite your partner, family member, or friend to securely share credentials. Access permissions can be managed at any time, and the sharing can be revoked if needed.
