When you set up 2FA, you choose how you want to authenticate:

• Sage Verify app
• Authenticator app
• SMS text
• Phone call

There are times when you're unable to authenticate using these methods.

For example:

• You've lost or no longer have access to your old phone
• Your authenticator app has been deleted
• Your code isn't being accepted
• You're not receiving a call or text with your code
• Your Sage account no longer appears in your authenticator app
• A different user set up 2FA and you don't have access to their device

No matter the reason, there are other ways you can authenticate your login.

Use your recovery key

You can authenticate using your 24-digit recovery code that you noted down when you first set up 2FA.

Use your backup method

Use your recovery email address or phone number to either reset your 2FA or access a temporary recovery code to log in.
