As an additional layer of security, it is now possible to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your Checkin account.

How to deactivate two-factor authentication (2FA)?



When two-factor authentication (2FA) is turned on, you will receive a 6-digit code via email that you need to enter when you log in to Checkin. 

 

How to enable two-factor authentication (2FA)?

  1. Click your name at the bottom of the sidebar and choose “Two-factor authentication”.

  1. Click “Set up code by email” in the window that appears.
  2. Follow the guide in the window:
  3. “send authentication code to your email address”
  4. Find the email in your inbox from sender no-reply@messenger.checkin.no, which contains the 6-digit code.
  5. Enter the 6-digit code you received by email in the Checkin window and click “complete setup.”

    Once the setup is complete, every time you log in to Checkin, you will receive a login code via email that needs to be entered—unless you tick off the box “trust the device for 30 days”.
