Two-factor authentication (2FA)

PrivateStay supports two-factor authentication (2FA) via an authenticator app. This adds a second layer of security to your account.

Enable 2FA

  1. Go to Dashboard → Account → Security
  2. Click Enable two-factor authentication
  3. Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, or any TOTP app)
  4. Enter the six-digit code from your app to confirm

Once enabled, every sign-in will require both your password and the current code from your authenticator app.

Warning

Store your authenticator app backup codes in a safe place. If you lose access to your authenticator app without backup codes, account recovery will require contacting support.

Sign in

Go to privatestay.club/sign-in, enter your email and password. If 2FA is enabled, you will be prompted for a verification code after entering your password.

Forgot your password?

On the sign-in page, click Forgot password? and enter your email address. You will receive a link to reset your password.
