Two-factor Authentication

How do I secure my Lemonway Account?

For enhanced security when accessing our services, Lemonway offers the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) feature. This functionality enables the users to log in from any non-whitelisted IP address by utilizing a verification code and a second factor (usually either a security token or a biometric factor, such as a fingerprint or facial scan) for authentication.

Note

To enable two-step authentication you will need to download an authenticator app to your mobile device. The app scans QR codes and retrieves authentication data for you. Recommended authenticator apps include:

  • Google Authenticator (available on iOS & Android)
  • Microsoft Authenticator (available on iOS & Android)
  • Duo Mobile (available on iOS & Android)
  • Authy (available on iOS & Android)

Good to know

Once the 2FA has been activated with a whitelisted IP address, if you want to log in from a non-whitelisted IP address, you will be able to do so with the verification code provided in the Authenticator app.
