B-bill Multifactor Authentication (MFA) for Authorized Users

Multifactor authentication is the use of a second verification method beyond a password to confirm the identity of the password holder. To protect the financial information of users, B-bill utilizes multifactor authentication. Users can choose one of several options for verifying their identity.

  1. Enter your username and password and select Login.
  2. You will then be prompted to begin the process of enabling MFA. Select how you would like to receive your authentication passcode from the three provided options.
    1. Authenticator app: The user gets a time-sensitive code from an app like Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or Google Authenticator. This is one of the most secure and popular options, especially since many let you use biometrics to log in for extra security.
    2. SMS code: The system texts a one-time passcode to the user’s mobile phone. This is convenient but less secure than other methods.
    3. Email code: A one-time code is emailed to the user. This is less secure than other methods but useful as a backup.
