From 13 October 2026, we're introducing trusted devices, another layer of protection that makes access to sensitive data safer and more resistant to phishing. From 13 October, you'll need to add a trusted device to perform certain actions in your account, such as viewing guest contact and credit card details.
What is a trusted device?
A trusted device is a device you've confirmed is yours. Trusting a device adds an extra layer of protection, keeping access to your sensitive information and actions safer and more resistant to phishing.
You need a trusted device to view sensitive information, such as guest contact and credit card details, or to perform sensitive actions. Trusted devices work alongside other security measures, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), passwords, and passkeys, to help keep your account secure.
Once a device is trusted, you can sign in without an MFA prompt and won't need to complete additional verification to view sensitive information or perform sensitive actions.
Note: Trusted devices work on a desktop, or on a mobile device (such as phone, iPad, or tablet) using a mobile web browser (such as Safari or Samsung browser). Trusted devices are not supported in the Little Hotelier mobile app.
Which actions need a trusted device?
You need a trusted device to:
View sensitive information, such as guest contact details (e-mail address and phone number), and guest credit card details
Modify a direct booking reservation
Download a list of reservations (Reservations page)
Download a monthly list of reservations for Demand Plus (Demand Plus > Statements)
Set up a payment gateway
Download or export reports, including the Reservation, Guest, Accounting, Check-in, Check-out, Payments, Extras, Police, Revenue Summary, Invoice, and General Ledger reports
Perform user management actions: adding new users or editing existing user’s permissions, removing a trusted device, deleting a passkey, or resetting MFA for another user.
Reset your own MFA, or delete your own passkey or trusted device from My Account.
On a trusted device, viewing sensitive information and performing sensitive actions unlock silently on that device instead of being asked to verify with your MFA method.
How do I add a trusted device?
You will only be able to set up trusted devices from 13 October 2026. You cannot add trusted devices before this date. On 13 October, you will receive a prompt to add a trusted device at login, or manage in My account.
Note: You need MFA set up before you can add a trusted device. If you haven't set up MFA yet, set it up first, then add your trusted device. You can also use a passkey, but MFA must be set up before you can create passkeys.
Add a trusted device at login
To add a trusted device when you log in to Little Hotelier from a new browser or device:
Log in on a desktop or mobile web browser with your password and MFA, or with a passkey.
When prompted with Trust this device for faster logins, click the Make trusted device button
If you logged in with a password and MFA, the Confirm trusted device window opens and we send you an e-mail to confirm your device. Keep this window open, then click the link in the e-mail to confirm your device before you can use it. If you logged in with a passkey, your device is trusted straight away. You don't need to confirm by e-mail, though we'll send a confirmation e-mail to let you know a device was added.
If you logged in with a passkey
Your device is trusted straight away. You will receive a confirmation e-mail to let you know a new trusted device has been added.
If you logged in with a password and MFA
You must confirm your device by e-mail before it becomes a trusted device. Until you confirm, you can't use it to view sensitive information. The confirmation link expires after 24 hours.
To confirm your device:
Keep the Confirm trusted device window open. Do not close this page while you confirm.
Open the confirmation e-mail we just sent you.
Click on "I trust this device".
Return to Little Hotelier to complete login, or follow the links in the e-mail. Once confirmed, the Confirm trusted device page will re-direct you back to the platform and will close automatically.
Add a trusted device from My Account
You can also add a trusted device from My Account settings:
Log in to your account on a desktop or mobile web browser.
Click on your profile icon in the top right corner > select My Account.
Scroll down to Trusted devices. Click Add trusted device.
Verify with your MFA or passkey when prompted.
💡 The Add trusted device button only appears when the device you're using isn't already trusted.
View your trusted devices
To see which devices are trusted on your account:
Log in to your account on a desktop or mobile web browser.
Click your profile icon in the top right corner, then select My Account.
Scroll down to Trusted devices.
Each device shows its name and browser, for example iPad | Safari. From here you can remove any device you no longer want to trust.
Remove a trusted device
You need to be on a trusted desktop device to remove one.
Log in to your account from a trusted device on a desktop or mobile web browser.
Click your profile icon in the top right corner, then select My Account.
Scroll down to Trusted devices and find the device you want to remove.
Click Remove next to that device.
Removing a device immediately ends its trusted status. You can't access sensitive information from that device until you add it back.
💡 Note: If you are not on a trusted device or you've lost access to your trusted devices, you can't delete a trusted device and you will need to ask another user with user management permissions to help.
What happens when I log in on a trusted device?
On a trusted device, you skip the extra verification step when you log in. After you enter your e-mail and password, you will be logged in and you won't be asked to verify with MFA or a passkey.
You may still be asked to verify with MFA occasionally, for example every 30 days, or if you switch browsers or devices, or clear your browser data.
What happens when I log in on a device that isn't trusted?
If you're logging in from a device that isn't trusted, you'll still be prompted to verify with MFA or a passkey. After verifying, you'll be asked if you want to set up this device as trusted. You can continue to log in without enrolling the device as trusted.
I do not want to use a trusted device. Do I have to?
A trusted device is required to view sensitive information, such as guest contact and credit card details, and to perform sensitive actions. You cannot use multi-factor authentication (MFA) or passkeys for these actions.
You can still log in to Little Hotelier without a trusted device, and you can continue without enrolling one when prompted, however without a trusted device you will not be able to view sensitive information or perform sensitive actions, and you cannot go back to using MFA on its own to unlock them.
The prompt to trust my device didn't appear at login. How do I add a trusted device?
If you weren't prompted to trust your device at login, or the Trust this device for faster logins prompt didn't appear, add a trusted device from My Account. No need to log back out and back in.
To add a trusted device from My Account:
Log in to your account on a desktop or mobile web browser.
Click your profile icon in the top right corner, then select My Account.
Scroll down to Trusted devices, then click Add trusted device.
Verify with your MFA or passkey when prompted.
Note: The Add trusted device button only appears when the device you're using isn't already trusted. You need MFA set up before you can add a trusted device.
My device is already trusted, why am I being prompted to set up again?
You closed the confirmation page before confirming.
To confirm your device, keep the Confirm trusted device page open until it confirms. If you enrolled with a password and MFA, don't close this page, navigate away, or click Skip before you've confirmed, or the confirmation won't complete and you'll be prompted to set up again. Open the confirmation e-mail we sent, click I trust this device, and keep the page open until it confirms. If you're not redirected automatically, wait 30 to 60 seconds, then refresh your browser and try again.
Your device was confirmed, but you've switched browser.
If your device was confirmed and you're still prompted, this is usually because trusted status is tied to the browser you set it up in. A trusted device is linked to your user account, your browser profile and your device, so you may be prompted again if you switch to a different browser, use incognito or private browsing mode, clear your browser data, or haven't verified for a while (for example, every 30 days). A device set up in incognito mode works there but not in your normal browser, and vice versa, because incognito is treated as a separate browser.
To use a trusted device in a particular browser, add it in that browser:
Open the browser you want to use.
Log in to your account.
Click your profile icon in the top right corner, then select My Account.
Scroll down to Trusted devices, then click Add trusted device.
Verify with your MFA or passkey when prompted.
Why can't I view credit card details?
To view sensitive information such as a guest's credit card details (PAN) or personal details (PII), you need to be on a trusted device. If you're on a device that isn't trusted, to view sensitive details, you'll be prompted to set up a trusted device.
To add a trusted device, first set up MFA, then make your device trusted. You can log in with a passkey, but you still need a trusted device to view these details.
Can I use trusted devices on mobile?
You can add a trusted device on a mobile device (such as phone, iPad, or tablet) using a mobile web browser (such as Safari or Samsung browser), and view sensitive information once it's trusted. Trusted devices are not supported in the Little Hotelier mobile app, which is separate from a mobile web browser.
How do I verify my identity in the Little Hotelier mobile app?
To log in and view sensitive guest details in the mobile app, you'll be prompted to verify with your multi-factor authentication (MFA) method. Passkeys and trusted devices are currently not supported in the Little Hotelier mobile app.
What if I have lost access to all my trusted devices?
If you no longer have access to any of your trusted devices, you can't remove a device, delete a passkey, or reset MFA yourself (via My account). This is because these actions are sensitive and require you to be on a trusted device.
To regain access:
Contact another user with manage user/user management permissions to remove the trusted device for you.
If a user with user management access isn't available, contact our support team. They can help remove one or all of your trusted devices for you.
Once your device is removed, log in with your MFA method and add your current device as a new trusted device.
I didn't receive the trusted device activation / confirmation e-mail
If you didn't receive the activation or confirmation e-mail when setting up a trusted device:
Check your spam or junk folder for the activation e-mail.
Select Resend email in the Confirm trusted device window.
Make sure you're checking the right inbox, and check the e-mail address on your account is correct. You can find this in My Account.
What if I get a trusted device email I didn't request?
When a new trusted device is enrolled on your account, you'll get an e-mail asking you to confirm it. If you didn't request this enrolment, open the e-mail and click Unknown device to reject it.
If you didn't request to enrol this trusted device, we recommend changing your password.
Can I register more than one device?
Yes. There is currently no limit to how many trusted devices can be enrolled, including across different browsers, although we recommend keeping the number of trusted devices to a minimum.
