Setting up two-factor login for your account

Two-factor authentication (a code from an authenticator app, in addition to your password) adds an extra layer of protection to your own Renta login.

Where to find it

Settings → Security → Your authenticator app section.

The Your authenticator app section with the Setup button

How it works

• Status badge — shows "Not set up" or "Verified" with a green checkmark, telling you whether two-factor is currently on for your account.
• Setup button — appears if you haven't set it up yet. Starts the enrollment flow, which shows a QR code and a secret key to scan into an authenticator app.
• 6-digit code input — during setup, enter the 6-digit code your authenticator app generates to confirm it's linked correctly.
• Confirm button — becomes active once you've entered all 6 digits, and turns on two-factor for your account.
• Disable MFA button — appears once set up. Owners and Managers can disable two-factor on their own account or someone else's.

Example

After scanning the QR code with an app like Google Authenticator, you'll type in the 6-digit code it shows to confirm setup — from then on, logging in asks for that code as well as your password.

Good to know

• If you lose access to your authenticator app, Recovery codes let you back in.
• An Owner can require two-factor for the whole team — see Requiring two-factor for your team.
