Mandatory 2FA Setup (Account Activation)
To maintain a highly secure environment for your account and sensitive agency data, BookingPad requires Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for all agents accessing the platform via an email and password combination. This security measure mandates a time-sensitive verification code, making unauthorized access virtually not possible.
Agent accounts registered and logging in via Google Single Sign-On are exempt from this internal 2FA requirement, as Google manages that security layer.
How does it work?
The system enforces 2FA setup during the agent’s initial access (Account Activation). Upon initial login/account activation, the Two Factor Authentication setup page displays.
- On your mobile device, download a compatible authenticator application, such as Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator.
- In the authenticator app, select the option to Scan QR Code.
- Scan the QR Code presented on the BookingPad screen.
Alternative: If scanning is not possible, you can manually enter the provided code into the app.
You may add a descriptive Name to the device to easily identify the account.
Once setup completes, subsequent logins will prompt you to enter the code generated by your authenticator app.
To remove the Authentication App, click on your email on BookingPad to display a panel, select Account Settings and scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the option to remove it:
