To help protect your account and personal information, we offer multi-factor authentication (MFA).

Multi-factor authentication is a secure process for us to confirm you’re you when logging into your My Dodo account, or when requesting or making changes to your mobile and/or internet account via our Dodo Team.

Each time, we’ll send you a code to the mobile number or email address we have for you.  Once you enter the code, you are ready to go.

Adding in the use of a code provides an extra layer of protection when you are accessing or making changes to your account.

Whenever you are accessing or making changes to your account that involve your financial or personal information, a code will be generated.

This could include logging into MyDodo, adding services, changing your plan, or updating your personal or payment details.

The code will be sent to the mobile number or email address registered on your account. Use the code to verify your identity by entering it when prompted in MyDodo or providing it to the Dodo representative assisting you.
