Portal - Multi-Factor Authentication

  • updated 9 mths ago

This article explains how to enable and disable multi-factor authentication on the online customer portal.

How to Enable Multi-Factor Authentication

  1. Go to the account tab in the online portal. 

  2. Under "User settings," select the box that says "Enable Multi-factor authentication."

  3. A pop-up with a scannable QR code will appear.

    • You can use any authenticator app to scan this QR code. We recommend Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, or Authy.

  4. Scan the QR code and the app will give you a verification code. 

  5. Enter this verification code into the form and you will be set up for multi-factor authentication. 

  6. From now on, when you log into the online portal, you will enter your username and password and then will need to open the app and enter the new code when prompted to do so.

How to Disable Multi-Factor Authentication

  1. Go to the Account tab in the online portal. 

  2. Under "User settings," uncheck the multi-factor authentication box.

  3. A pop-up window will appear, select “Disable Authentication.”

    • Keep in mind that if you choose to set it up again, your original code will no longer be valid and you will need to set it up again as a new account.
