Hello All!

From time to time Quickbooks wants to send me verification code to my email account as an additional logging step, is it possible to turn it off, so after user is verified once it only requires login and password for accessing system?

I can share some information about turning off QuickBooks email verification, lukaszkot.

 

That verification process is a security enhancement on top of the usual password requirement. It works as an extra layer of security wherein a one-time confirmation code is given when you log in.

 

You'll just have to log in to your Intuit account to turn that off. 

 

Follow the steps below:

 

  1. Go to this link: Intuit account and then use your QuickBooks Online (QBO) credentials.
  2. Choose Sign In & Security and then go to the Two-step verification section, and select Turn-off.
  3. Enter the code, then select Continue.

 

For more information about turning off two-step verification if you're using the same or different phone number check out this article: Verify your QuickBooks Online account with multi-factor authentication or two-step verification.

 

In case you encounter errors when going to your account, follow the steps outlined in the following article on how to resolve them: Fix common sign-in errors in QuickBooks Online.

Hi!

Thank you for quick response. 2FA verification is turned off on my side, but still from time to time ( once in few days, sometimes once in few hours, hard to find any regularity to be honest ) it wants to send code. Any ideas how to get rid off it?

Hi there, @lukaszkot.

 

I got you covered in turning off the authentication when logging into QuickBooks.

 

There are times that even if your two-step verification is turned off, you will be asked to verify your identity. It is due to several factors, such as the device, network, or browser you use to sign in to Intuit products. So, if we can't establish high confidence or trust based on these factors, you may be prompted for this to make sure your account is not compromised.

 

But, if you're sure you're signing in from a trusted device, you could still be asked to verify your identity due to external factors, such as an ad blocker. In this point, either add the *.intuit.com domain to your ad blocker's allow list or disable your ad blocker specifically for the *.intuit.com domain.

 

For more details about disabling two-step verification, I recommend reading this article: Verify your QuickBooks Online account with multi-factor authentication or two-step verification.
