Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication is available for all Geocodio accounts.

Enterprise accounts

When you first log in, you will be prompted to set up two-factor authentication. If you are having issues with two-factor authentication, please contact us.

Standard accounts

1. To add two-factor authentication to your Geocodio account, first login to the Geocodio dashboard.
2. Click on your email address in the top right-hand corner, and select two-factor.
3. You will then be prompted to install a TOTP-compatible app on your computer or mobile device:

Authy (iOS, Android, Chrome, OS X)

FreeOTP (iOS, Android and Pebble)

Google Authenticator (iOS)

Google Authenticator (Android)

Microsoft Authenticator (iOS, Android, Windows Phone)

LastPass Authenticator (iOS, Android, OS X, Windows)

1Password (iOS, Android, OS X, Windows)

4. After you have installed the app and click next, you will then be given a list of recovery codes. Print or save these codes.
5. Scan the QR code
6. Enter the two sets of six-digit codes
7. If the codes are accepted, you will be taken to a confirmation page that two-factor has been added to your account.
8. The next time you log in, you will be prompted to enter a code.

As the codes are timed, your devices must be set to the current correct time in order for the authentication to work.

If you are having trouble with two-factor authentication, please contact support.

For security reasons, Geocodio cannot guarantee that accounts with two-factor authentication enabled will be able to be recovered if you lose access to your third-party authentication app of choice. We will do our best to assist you, but recommend that you keep close track of any backup codes provided by your third-party app - as well as set up any auxiliary options for account recovery that they provide.
