Two-factor authentication: Backup tokens

Two-factor authentication is mandatory for all our professional accounts. It is not mandatory for clients , but we can set it up for you on request. To log in you have to use an authenticator app on your phone that will generate tokens for you. On those occasions that you cannot use your phone for whatever reason and you have to log in to the platform you still have the option to use backup tokens.

Generating backup tokens

To generate backup tokens you first have to log in to Therapieland or Gezondeboel.

Generating extra backup tokens

When you've run out of backup tokens you will be able to generate new ones by clicking on the blue button saying 'Generate more'. 

Using backup tokens

You cannot enter the backup tokens into the standard login form. To use a backup token while logging in you have to click on the gray button saying 'Use backup token'. When you do that you can enter one of the tokens. Once you have used a backup token you cannot use it again; every token only works one time! 

Setting up two-factor authentication

You will receive five backup tokens once you have set up two-factor authentication succesfully the first time. To set up two-factor authentication for your account you have to follow a number of steps. We describe these steps in this article: Setting up two-factor authentication
