Two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication (2FA) is an extra layer of protection which significantly increases the security of your account.

When you activate 2FA in your ContentKing account, you will be required to enter a one-time code from your mobile device every time when logging in.

Setting up 2FA

Authenticator app

We recommend using the Google Authenticator app for the 2FA in ContentKing, although other authenticator apps are also supported.

Google Authenticator is available for iOS (opens in a new tab) as well as for Android (opens in a new tab).

Download Google Authenticator to your mobile device to get started.

Setting up 2FA in ContentKing

1. Go to Account → Your profile and in the Two-factor authentication section click Set up 2FA.
2. Scan the QR code in the pop-up window with the Authenticator app on your mobile device.
3. Enter the 6-digit code generated by the Authenticator app into the field below.
4. You did it! 2FA is now active and your account is secure. :)

If you are not able to scan the QR code with your mobile device, you can generate the 6-digit code manually. Here is how to do it:
