Appearance
Account & Settings
Account settings in the new dashboard live in three places in the sidebar's Account section: Profile (you and your business), Team (colleagues and permissions), and Billing (plan and payments).
Profile

- Log in to my.captifi.io
- Go to Account → Profile in the sidebar
Personal & Business Information
Your profile card shows your business name, email (with a Verified/Unverified badge), phone, website, venue type, country, timezone, and customer number. To change any of it:
- Click Edit on the profile card
- Update any of: Full name, Business name, Email address, Phone, Website, Venue type, Country, Timezone — plus your profile photo
- Click Save changes
Changing your email
Changing your email address sends a verification link to the new address — click it to confirm. You can also hit Resend verification email from the profile card at any time.
Venue Address
The Venue address card sets your venue's location (and map pin). Pick the venue (if you have several), fill in Address line 1/2, City / town, State / region, Postal code, and Country, then click Save address. Your venue's timezone is derived automatically from the address.
Change Password
On the same page, the Change password card asks for your Current password, a New password (minimum 8 characters), and confirmation. Click Update password.
Forgotten your password? Use Forgot password? on the login page to receive a reset link by email.
Sign in with Google, Microsoft or Apple
The sign-in page on both dashboards, my.captifi.io and the classic dashboard at app.captifi.io, has Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft and Continue with Apple buttons. They sign you in to your existing CaptiFi account when the email address on your Google, Microsoft or Apple account is the same as the one on your CaptiFi account. Google covers Gmail and Google Workspace mailboxes on your own domain. Microsoft covers Microsoft 365 work accounts and personal Outlook.com accounts, matched on the account's sign-in name.com accounts.
The buttons never create an account: new customers still start at captifi.io/trial. Your password keeps working alongside them.
- Open the sign-in page at my.captifi.io or app.captifi.io
- Click Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft or Continue with Apple
- Choose the account that uses the same email address as your CaptiFi account
- The first time only, enter your CaptiFi password when asked
- You are signed in
The first time you use it
The first time you use a provider, CaptiFi asks for your CaptiFi password once to confirm the account is yours, then links that provider to your account. After that, the button signs you straight in. If the Google, Microsoft or Apple account behind your email is ever replaced (for example your IT team deletes and recreates it), CaptiFi asks for your password once more and moves the link to the new account.
If you use two-factor authentication
If your account has two-factor authentication, you still enter your authenticator code after clicking the button, exactly as you would after a password. If you have ticked Trust this device for 30 days on that browser, the skip applies here too.
Apple and Hide My Email
When Apple asks how to share your email, choose Share My Email. CaptiFi can only match the real email address on your account, so Apple's Hide My Email option does not work for signing in.
Apple only asks the first time you use Sign in with Apple for CaptiFi. If you chose Hide My Email earlier and Apple no longer asks, open your Apple ID settings, go to Sign-In & Security, then Sign in with Apple, select CaptiFi and choose Stop Using Sign in with Apple. Click Continue with Apple again and choose Share My Email. Or sign in with your email and password.
Microsoft sign-in names
For Microsoft, the address CaptiFi compares is your account's sign-in name, the one shown under your name in the Microsoft account picker. Some Microsoft 365 organisations set that differently from the mailbox address (for example jsmith@contoso.onmicrosoft.com for a mailbox at john.smith@contoso.com). If yours differs from the email on your CaptiFi account, the Microsoft button cannot match your account: sign in with your email and password, or use Google or Apple if one of those accounts uses your CaptiFi email.
If it says no account uses that email
"No CaptiFi account uses that email address" means the email on the Google, Microsoft or Apple account you picked is not the email currently on your CaptiFi account (shown under Profile on this page). Sign in with that email and your password, or pick the provider account that uses it.
Team members invited to an account can use the buttons too once their invite is accepted, as long as the emails match. Forgotten password recovery is unchanged: the forgotten password link on either sign-in page still sends a reset link by email.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Protect your account with an extra layer of security, using any authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, Microsoft Authenticator).
Setting Up 2FA
- Go to Account → Profile and find the Two-factor authentication card
- Click Enable 2FA
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (or copy the secret manually)
- Enter the 6-digit code from the app and click Verify and activate
- Save your recovery codes — they're shown once. Store them somewhere safe (a password manager or printed copy)
Signing In With 2FA
After entering your password you'll be asked for a 6-digit code. You can tick Trust this device for 30 days to skip the step on a browser you own, and use a recovery code instead if you don't have your phone.
Managing 2FA
- Trusted devices — the 2FA card lists browsers you've trusted; revoke any of them (or all) at any time
- Disable 2FA — requires your current password
- Lost access? — if you lose your authenticator and recovery codes, contact hello@captifi.io and we'll verify your identity to restore access
Notifications
The bell icon in the top bar shows recent events across your venues, campaigns, and reviews. Click View all notifications for the full history with All/Unread/Read tabs and a Mark all read button.
Email and SMS alert preferences
Alert preferences (monthly digest emails, access-point up/down alerts, SMS alerts) are currently managed in the classic dashboard at app.captifi.io under Account Settings → the Notifications tab.
