Fix Government Gateway Logins | Automate MFA & Boost Profitability

One Phone Holds Up the Entire Firm

Every MFA code goes to one registered device. When that person is in a meeting, on leave, or at lunch, your entire team is locked out of HMRC. No filing. No client work. No progress until they pick up.

Every Workaround Is an Audit Failure

Your team will adapt: Teams chats or WhatsApp groups to share codes, sticky notes on monitors, shouting across the office... Every workaround they invent is a compliance violation waiting to surface. You have replaced one security problem with another.

Hundreds of Codes a Day

A mid-size firm logs into Government Gateway dozens of times daily. That is hundreds of MFA prompts per week. Each one requires someone to check a phone, read a six-digit code, and type it in before the 30-second window expires. At scale, manual handling is not a workflow. It is a collapse.

Get It Wrong and Get Locked Out

Enter the wrong code too many times and Government Gateway freezes the account. Firms have reported resolution times of up to six weeks. Imagine telling your clients you're locked out of the Gateway while they panic about their deadlines.

Fix This Before June

Your Phone Generates the Code.
You Still Have to Enter It Yourself.

Government Gateway isn't just 'hard to use.' It's explcitly hostile to your tools and workarounds, and your current vendor has no answer.

Government Gateway Breaks Standard Tools

Government Gateway uses a non-standard 12-digit User ID, silently truncates passwords to 12 characters, and requires navigation from another GG page to reach the login screen. Most password managers fail before the MFA step even begins.

Generating a Code Is Not Entering It

Your tool shows you six digits. You still have to open the app, find the right account, copy the code, switch to the browser, and paste it before the 30-second window closes. That is not automation. That is a faster manual process.

Desktop Apps Are Completely Invisible

Your firm runs on Sage, QuickBooks Desktop, and legacy payroll systems that live outside the browser. Your browser-only IAM cannot touch them. Those apps have no SSO, no audit trail, and no off-switch when someone leaves.

See What Automation Looks Like

MFA Code Generated and Entered. You're In the ASA in One Click. Every Time.

We do not generate a code for you to enter. We generate it and enter it. No human step. No bottleneck. No 30-second race.

Full MFA Automation

Your team selects the required Government Gateway account from a searchable list. My1Login handles the rest: credentials entered, MFA code generated, code auto-filled, login complete. The user never sees a code, never waits for an SMS, and never touches an authenticator app.

Desktop App SSO

Full Single Sign-On for Windows desktop applications. If your team uses it, we secure it. My1Login is the only IAM that covers what accounting firms actually run on.

Invisible Adoption

My1Login deploys as an invisible layer on existing workstations. No new portal. No behaviour change. Your team works exactly as they do now. They just become secure and ten times faster.
