2-Step Verification: Enhanced Security for Eireview Accounts

Your privacy and data security are of utmost importance to us. That’s why we have implemented 2-step verification, an additional layer of protection for your Eireview account. This feature adds an extra step after entering your password, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access your account. Join us as we guide you through the setup process and address any concerns you may have.

Turning on 2-Step Verification

While activating 2-step verification is not mandatory, we strongly encourage all Eireview users to enable this feature for enhanced security. Follow these steps to activate 2-step verification:

  1. Log in to your Eireview account page.
  2. Select 2-step verification then click on Set up. You may need to log in again.
  3. Choose whether you want to enable 2-step verification via an authenticator app or text message (SMS). Pro tip: You can enable both options for added convenience.

Once you have activated 2-step verification, you will receive an email confirmation.

Logging in using 2-Step Verification

After successfully setting up 2-step verification, each time you log in to your Eireview account, you will be prompted to enter both your password and a code. This code can be obtained from either a text message or your authenticator app. If you have enabled both text message and an authenticator app, the code will be sent as a text message by default. However, if you prefer to use your authenticator app or a backup code, simply select Want to log in another way?.

Trouble Logging In with 2-Step Verification?

If you are still unable to log in, feel free to contact us for further assistance.
