Enable two-factor authentication

Step-by-step setup for SMS and authenticator apps.

What is two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your IVO account. When enabled, you will need to enter a 6-digit verification code sent to your email each time you sign in, in addition to your password.

How to enable 2FA

  1. Go to My Profile.
  2. Scroll down to the Security section.
  3. Toggle the Two-Factor Authentication switch to ON.

That is it — 2FA is now active on your account. The next time you log in, you will be asked for a verification code.

How to disable 2FA

  1. Go to My Profile.
  2. Scroll down to the Security section.
  3. Toggle the Two-Factor Authentication switch to OFF.
  4. A verification code will be sent to your email — enter it to confirm the change.

For security, disabling 2FA itself requires a verification code to prevent unauthorized changes.

How the verification code works

  1. You perform a protected action (sign in, or disable 2FA).
  2. IVO sends a 6-digit code to the email address on your account.
  3. A verification window appears — enter the code and click Confirm.
  4. The action is completed.

Code details

  • The code is 6 digits
  • It is sent to your email address
  • The code expires after 15 minutes
  • If the code expires, click Resend Code to receive a new one (available after a 30-second cooldown)
  • Requesting a new code invalidates the previous one

What actions are always protected?

Even if you have not enabled 2FA for login, certain sensitive actions always require a verification code:

  • Account deletion — requesting to delete your IVO account
  • Disabling 2FA — turning off two-factor authentication
  • Merchant plugin setup — configuring merchant integration

Tips

  • Check your spam folder if you do not see the email. It is sent from noreply@ivo.md.
  • You can paste the code from the email — the form auto-submits when all 6 digits are entered.
  • If you enter the wrong code, you can try again immediately.
