Open Dashboard → Settings → Secure your sign-in. If your owner account needs verification, this guide opens automatically.
- Open an authenticator on your phone. Already use one? Keep it. Otherwise, use the iPhone or Android link on the page to install the free Google Authenticator app. Click "I have an authenticator — continue."
- In Google Authenticator, tap + → Scan a QR code and scan the code shown on the page. On the same phone or unable to scan? Open "Enter a setup key," copy the key, add an account named Iron Front Digital in your app, and choose Time based. Return to the page and continue when you see a six-digit code.
- Enter the current code from the Iron Front Digital entry in your app. Click "Verify and turn on two-factor." The code comes from the app, not text or email. If it expires, wait for a fresh code and try again.
- Download or copy the backup codes into a safe place. They are shown once; each can replace an authenticator code for one sign-in. Confirm that you saved them, then click "Finish setup."
Owners finish by signing out and signing back in with their password and a fresh app code. The guide provides the button and opens the sign-in code field for you. No subscription or upgrade is required for owner access.
If you've lost your device, use a saved backup code to sign in. In Settings, open "Turn off two-factor authentication" and confirm with a valid code before connecting a new authenticator.
