How do I enable two-factor authentication (2FA)?

Guide from Security — written for Canadian customers. Billing always in CAD.

Security

2FA adds a one-time code from your phone so a stolen password is not enough to get in. You can protect cPanel and your billing login.

cPanel

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. Open Security → Two-Factor Authentication.
  3. Click Set Up Two-Factor Authentication.
  4. Scan the QR code with Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, or Authy.
  5. Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

Store backup codes if cPanel shows them.

Billing portal

  1. Log in at https://4goodhosting.com/billing2/clientarea.php.
  2. Open your profile or security settings and enable Two-Factor Authentication.
  3. Scan the QR code and confirm with a code from your app.

If you lose your phone

Open a ticket from a verified email or call support so we can verify ownership and reset 2FA securely. We will never ask you to email your password.
