How to Set Login Policy in Company Security Settings
This guide explains how System Administrators can configure company Security Settings in LendingPad. You’ll learn how to update password expiration rules, enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), configure Single Sign-On (SSO) providers, and manage trusted IP addresses. Beginning October 2025, MFA will be mandatory for all users.
📢 Important Reminder
Beginning October 5th, 2025, logging in with only a username and password will no longer be supported. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) will be required for all users.
-
System Admins → Go to Settings > Security > Manage Security and update the Authentication Type to Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
📌 Admin Tip
Before enabling MFA, double-check that all users have a mobile phone number entered in their Profile. Without it, SMS codes cannot be delivered.
-
Users → Once MFA is enabled, open your Profile and choose your preferred method: SMS or Google Authenticator.
✅ Please complete this setup before October 5, 2025 to avoid login issues and ensure a smooth transition.
