Two-Factor Authentication
At Hugo’s Way, we care about your security.
You now have an option to enable Two-factor authentication (2FA) on your Hugo’s Way account. You can quickly protect your account and data from unauthorised access attempts with this simple guide.
2FA is completely free and can be turned off in the future if you do not want to use it anymore.
Part 1: Get your Hugo’s Way account ready to scan a QR code
You will need to choose a 2FA app to set up the access with. For this demonstration, we are using Authy.
You can download Authy from the App Store, Google Play and from their website Authy.com.
Log into your Hugo’s Way account.

- Enter the code presented to you on the app screen inside the field in Hugo’s Way account (See part 2 of this guide)

Two-Factor Authentication is now enabled and will be available when you next sign in to your account. If you are having an issue scanning the QR code please click the “Unable to scan?” link and enter the code on the screen.
