Brevo 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

brevo.com Supported

Brevo supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Brevo account.

A Brevo account holds campaigns and client data, so 2FA keeps it out of the wrong hands. Besides an authenticator app, Brevo 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 Brevo supports

  • SMS text message
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan Brevo's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Brevo and open your Brevo account security settings.

  3. 3

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

    Open Authenticator App - Novaz, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Brevo displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your Brevo account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Brevo account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Brevo 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 Brevo doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Brevo's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
