How to set up Google Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) provides an additional layer of protection for your Wealth99 account. Even if someone gains access to your email address and password, 2FA helps keep your account secure.

Before you begin:

Make sure your device’s date and time are set to automatic. (Refer to item 1 in this article for step-by-step instructions.)

 

Enable Google 2FA

Google 2FA generates a unique 6‑digit code in the Google Authenticator app. Follow the steps below to set it up:

1. Once you are logged in and your account is verified, you will be prompted to enable 2FA immediately. You can also turn it on at any time by going to Settings > Security and toggling on Google Authenticator.

2. If you do not already have Google Authenticator installed on your mobile device, you will see links to download it. If it is already installed, you can skip this step and click Next.

If you are unable to scan the QR code, select the option to use a manual setup key instead. In Google Authenticator, tap the + icon, choose Enter a setup key, and type in the key displayed on your Wealth99 screen.

4. Enter the six‑digit code generated by Google Authenticator into the field on Wealth99.

5. After setup, a backup code will be displayed. This code can be used to disable 2FA if you ever lose access to your authenticator app. Write this code down by hand and store it in a safe place. You will not be able to view this code again later.

6. Once you have safely stored your backup code, click The backup code is safe to finish the process.

 

Important

  • Keep your backup code secure. If you lose the device with your authenticator app, you will need this code to regain access to your account.

  • Each time you deactivate and reactivate 2FA, a new backup code will be generated.
