* An easy-to-use interface, including optimisation for mobile.
* Easy access to your API credentials to ensure you can connect your store to your Peach Payments account without contacting Peach Payments support.

* Using a magic link; this is the default login method. After entering your email address, Dashboard sends you a magic link that you click to log in.
* Using a password.
## Enrol in two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication is always on for the Peach Payments Dashboard. The first time you log in, or after an owner or administrator has [reset your two-factor authentication enrolment](/docs/dashboard-settings#reset-two-factor-authentication-enrolment), the Dashboard shows the **Secure Your Account** page after you authenticate. You must complete enrolment to continue:
1. Open the authenticator app on your phone, such as Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator. The following instructions describe the Google Authenticator process, but it should be similar for other authenticator apps:
1. Tap the **+** button and then tap **Scan a QR code**.
2. Scan the QR code that the Peach Payments **Secure Your Account** page is displaying. If you cannot scan the QR code, click **Trouble Scanning?** and follow the instructions.
3. Note the 6-digit authentication code for Peach Payments.
2. In your browser, enter the authentication code from your authenticator app and click **Continue**.
## Log in using a magic link
To access the Dashboard:
1. Visit [https://dashboard.peachpayments.com](https://dashboard.peachpayments.com).
2. Enter your company email address and click **Submit**.
3. In your email inbox, click the **Login to Dashboard** link that you received from Peach Payments (if you've got multiple login emails, click the latest link). If the email isn't in your inbox, check your spam folder. The magic link expires after five minutes, but you can redo this procedure to receive a new link.
4. When the Dashboard prompts you for two-factor authentication:
1. On your phone, open your authenticator app and note the 6-digit authentication code for Peach Payments.
2. In your browser, in the **Verify Your Identity** window, enter the authentication code.
3. Select **Remember this device for 30 days** if you don't want the Dashboard to ask for an authentication code for the next 30 days.
4. Click **Continue**.
If clicking the **Login to Dashboard** link takes you back to the Dashboard login page, enter your company email address and click **Submit** again. In your email inbox, copy the login URL, paste it into your browser, and press **Enter**. If this doesn't work, and if you're using Mimecast for email security, ask your Mimecast administrator to add the Peach Payments domain to your allowlist.
If neither of these solutions work, try to log in [using your password](/docs/dashboard-overview#log-in-using-a-password), and if that fails, [contact support](https://support.peachpayments.com/support/tickets/new?ticket_form=log_a_support_ticket) for assistance.
## Log in using a password
When you first gain access to the Dashboard, the email contains a link to either log in using a magic link, or to complete your account by setting a password. Use the password that you set there for all future logins, unless you reset it. If you can't find the initial email, you can set your first password using the [reset your password functionality](/docs/dashboard-overview#reset-your-password).
