With two-factor authentication (2FA), you secure your anny account beyond the password. Through a second confirmation step, you prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to your data, even if your password should become known.

​
What is two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication is an additional security layer for your login. This means:
  • you sign in as usual with your email address and your password
  • afterwards, you confirm your sign-in with an additional factor, for example a security code
This prevents other people from logging in to your account with your password alone.

​
What is the feature helpful for?

This feature is relevant for all users and administrators within anny to maximize account security.
  • Admins who have access to sensitive booking and customer data.
  • Providers who process payments through anny.
  • Team members in organizations with high security standards.
  • End users who want to protect their personal booking profile.
2FA is the standard for modern data security on the web.

​
Where can I activate two-factor authentication in anny?
