Recovering Two-Factor Access

How to regain access to your account if you've lost your authenticator app and backup codes

1 min readUpdated 2026-06-02

If you've lost access to your authenticator app and your backup codes, we can help — but it requires a manual review from our support team.

What to do

Email [email protected] with:

  • The email address on your Dsposal account.
  • A brief description of what happened (e.g. "I replaced my phone and didn't restore my authenticator").
  • The name of the organisation you belong to in Dsposal.

We may ask a few additional questions to verify your identity before we reset your two-factor settings.

What happens next

Once we've confirmed your identity, a member of our team will:

  1. Disable the authenticator app on your account.
  2. Invalidate your existing backup codes.
  3. Reply to your email confirming you can sign back in.

After that, sign in with your email — we'll send you a one-time code by email. Once you're back in, head to Account → Profile → Two-factor authentication to set up a new authenticator and save fresh backup codes.

Tips to avoid getting locked out again

  • Save your backup codes somewhere durable: a password manager, a printed copy in a safe place, or both.
  • Register a passkey alongside your authenticator. Passkeys live on multiple devices and don't require a one-time code.
  • Add a second passkey (e.g. your laptop and phone). If one device is lost or wiped, the other still works.
