# Access and Management

Accessing your license is made easy through the [dashboard](https://dashboard.refractbot.com/home). Here, you will find everything you need to know pertaining to your Refract license. Anything form multi-factor authentication to renewal is handled via the dashboard.\
\
Refract **does not** use a "key" based system. Instead, we use an account based system as that provides for ultimate security and ease of use.

{% hint style="info" %}
The same account information used to login to the dashboard is the same login information used to login to the bot.
{% endhint %}
