Dashlane Verification Code Not Received
Workaround available All Updated October 21, 2026
Quick answer
Dashlane sends new-device codes to your contact email, which may not be your login email. Check that inbox and spam, refresh the login page and choose 'Resend code', or log in with a QR code from another device.
Most likely fix: Check the right inbox and resend.
Symptoms
Logging in on a new device asks for an emailed code that never arrives, or you're asked for a 6-digit token you don't have.
Why it happens
- Code sent to the contact email, which differs from the login email
- Email filtered to spam or another folder
- 2FA enabled, so Dashlane expects an authenticator app token instead of an email
- Outdated app or extension, or a browser issue
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Check the right inbox and resend
- Check your contact email address, including spam and other folders
- Go back to the Dashlane login page and refresh it
- Select 'Resend code'
2. Allow Dashlane's emails
- Add Dashlane's no-reply and support addresses to your contacts
- Log in again to trigger a new code
3. Use a QR code from another device
- If you're logged in on another phone or tablet, choose the QR code login option
- Scan it with the logged-in device
4. Use your authenticator app if 2FA is on
- If asked for a 6-digit token, open your authenticator app
- Enter the current Dashlane code; emails are not sent when 2FA is on
5. Try another browser or update
- Update the Dashlane app or extension
- If you use a Chromium browser, try logging in from Firefox
6. Change the contact email
- If you no longer have access to the contact inbox, change your contact email from a logged-in device
- Or contact Dashlane support through the help center chat
