# Overview of Content on the Gateway

### **Overview of Content on the Gateway**

**Vendor/Client Gateway: Overview of Content** Content displayed on the Vendor/Client Gateway can be viewed by Vendors/Clients who have logged in to the Gateway.

**Logging into the Vendor/Client Gateway**

Upon navigation to the vendor/client gateway, a user must either register or login with existing credentials.

If enabled by the system administrator, multi-factor authentication may be required. If so, the user may receive an email with a code to be entered.

Once the user logs in with valid credentials, they must follow the prompt, receive the code from their email, and verify login into the system.
