How to set up a new phone with 2 Factor Authentication?

After you have started using AccXite you might end up in a situation where you might need to change the phone. Alternatively, you might want to use a second phone as a backup for 2 Factor Authentication. Setting up the new phone with 2 Factor Authentication is pretty straight forward with AccXite.

  4. Click on “Two-factor authentication” and then “Configure authenticator app”. Alternatively go to https://www.accxite.com.au/Manage/EnableAuthenticator
  5. Now you can follow the instructions on the screen to setup the new phone.
  6. After you have verified, click on the “Log out” button at the top screen so that you can return to the normal website.
