Why use 2FA?    


The Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra level of security to your account. Besides your log-in credentials you will need an additional second factor in form of a one-time password. To receive this code you will need a special authentication app like Authy, 1Password, FreeOTP or Google Authenticator. Before you can log into your account you will need to enter the generated password. This way you can avoid that your account and data get abused if someone manages to steal your log-in credentials (which we hope will never be the case at all).

How to enable 2FA?

  1. Go to Account → Profile and scroll down to “Two-Factor Authentication”. 

  2. Click on Enable 2FA and you will be redirected to a page showing a QR-code. 

  3. Scan the QR-code with your phone. 

  4. Follow the instructions of your authentication app

    Important note:
    Make sure you have one of the mentioned authentication apps installed on your phone.


  5. Enter the displayed authentication code in the “Enable Two-Factor Authentication” window and click on “Submit”. You will see a one-time code you can copy to a personal document. Click then on “Close”.

    Important note: 
    Copy the displayed link to use the backup code in case you don’t have your authentication app with you.
