Checkfront 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

checkfront.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on Checkfront to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Checkfront asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

Turning on 2FA for Checkfront adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone isn't enough to get in. Besides an authenticator app, Checkfront also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods Checkfront supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • SMS text message

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If Checkfront shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how Checkfront recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

Menu names on Checkfront can change — the official Checkfront 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.

How to recover your Checkfront account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Checkfront gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Checkfront doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Checkfront's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
