Multi-Factor Authentication

Learn how to enable multi-factor authentication for you and your company.


When you log onto the Dashboard, you have the ability to sign up for multi-factor authentication.

Finix supports SMS and Mobile Authenticator options. Users can opt into either option.

When an individual logs in with multi-factor authentication enabled, they'll be prompted to either enter a Code sent from Finix or enter a code from a mobile authenticator app such as Google Authenticator.

Enabling Multi-Factor Authentication for yourself

Set up MFA

To enable multi-factor authentication for yourself on the dashboard:

  1. Navigate to the Company > User page
  2. Click on the Set Up MFA Link

A screen will appear asking whether to enable:

  • SMS Authentication
  • Mobile Authenticator

SMS or Mobile Authenticator

After choosing your selection, you can either:

  1. Enter a phone number to receive an SMS text (carrier text message rates may apply)
  2. Set up a mobile authenticator with Google Authenticator, Okta, or another provider.

When you have successfully enabled multi-factor authentication, you'll be routed to the same user page.
