Added security with verification codes and 2FA
Two-factor authentication (2FA)
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your account by asking you to enter your password plus a unique code before accessing your account.
We may ask you to activate 2FA if you ask for extra security or if we notice something unusual.
One-time verification code
A one-time code is a secure, temporary code we send to an email address or mobile number as added security when you login. It helps us confirm that the person logging into your account is really you.
Never share your code with anyone. This includes anyone who calls, texts or emails you asking for the code.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) helps keep your AGL account safe.
In the AGL app
Go to the Account tab and select Settings.
Select Login Details.
Select Set Up Two-Factor Authentication to activate or deactivate 2FA.
In My Account
Log in to My Account with your registered email address. If you don't have a password set, you’ll be prompted to set one up.
If you have multiple properties, select a property.
Select your name in the top right corner, then Profile.
Go to the Personal Details tab, find Two-factor authentication, then select Edit.
Confirm your email address and mobile number and then enable 2FA.
Note: 2FA is set up on your login account and will apply to all properties linked to your account.
Energy customers
If you’ve set up 2FA on your AGL energy account, you’ll need to use it when you log in. But to keep your account secure, we may ask you to use 2FA even if you haven’t set it up. For example, if you try to access your account on a new device, we’ll send you an SMS or email with a unique one-time code for verification.
Internet and mobile customers
2FA is enabled automatically on your AGL mobile or nbn® account, and you can’t modify your 2FA settings. If you’re logging in for the first time and don't have a password set up, we’ll ask you to create one.
Log in with your email or mobile and password.
We’ll send a one-time code to your email or mobile.
Enter this code in the Enter Code field and select Next to finalise login.
The one-time code is only valid for five minutes after it is sent. If it expires, you'll need to request another one.
