Hi DrewBB,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities. Congratulations on your iPhone purchase. We're glad to help!


When transferring from your existing device, it's possible to have all accounts and information restore to your new device by using Quick Start. This includes accounts and passwords.


Depending on the type of third-party account, you may be asked to enter the password and confirm the first time you attempt to use it, such as when accessing email.


The following guide has more information:


Transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Have a great day!
