Getting Started


What is the Dentons Client Portal? Asset 1

The Dentons Client Portal is a secure view-only online platform that allows you to access information about your SIPP.

 

Through the Client Portal, you can:

 

  • View your SIPP investments and their last known valuations
  • Check important information about your SIPP
  • View and securely download key documents such as pension payslips, annual reviews, and invoices
  • Access your Pension Administrator’s contact details

 

 

The portal is designed to make managing your pension simpler, faster, and more secure.

 

Next steps

Once your SIPP has been established, you will receive an email and letter from your Pension Administrator confirming your Client Portal login details.


How do I get access to the Client Portal? Asset 1

Access to your Client Portal is automatically set up when your SIPP has been established.

 

  1. For new clients, your Pension Administrator will send you an email containing your temporary username, and a letter containing your temporary password, to ensure only you can access your pension information when your new SIPP is set up.
  2. For existing SIPP clients, if you have forgotten your login details, please use “I’ve forgotten my password” link on the Sign in page.

 

Next steps

If you have not received your client portal details from your Pension Administrator, please check your spam or junk folder, but please note it can take a few minutes at busier times, or contact your Pension Administrator for assistance.


What do I need before I login for the first time? Asset 1

Before logging in, make sure that you have:

 

  • Your email and letter containing your login details
  • Access to your email and mobile phone (for the Multi-Factor Authentication stages)

 

Next steps

Please use the ‘Client portal’ positioned in the top right-hand corner of the Dentons Pensions website.

If you forget your password, you can easily reset it online.

 

  1.  Go to the Client Portal login page
  2.  Click “I’ve forgotten my password”
  3.  Enter your registered email address
  4.  You will be sent an email with instructions to reset your password

 

Next steps

If you do not receive the reset password email, please check your spam or junk folder, but please note it can take a few minutes at busier times.

If you still have not received the email, please contact us via enquiries@dentonspensions.co.uk.


Why am I being asked for a verification code when logging in? Asset 1

This is part of our Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) process where unique 6-digit codes will be sent to both your email address, and to your mobile phone via SMS. MFA adds extra layers of protection by requiring:

 

  • Your email address to be verified
  • Your mobile phone number to be verified

This helps to ensure that only you can access your account.

 


Please note: For U.S. numbers, select the +1 International dialling code. You will then be provided with a tick box that you can select to confirm that your phone number is from the USA, and that you understand that you will be opted-out of SMS verification (as shown in the image above):

 

Next steps

You will first encounter the email verification stage, where a unique 6-digit code will be sent to the email address you are verifying

 

Once completed, you will need to verify your mobile phone number, where you will receive another unique 6-digit code via SMS to the mobile phone number you are verifying.

 

MFA verification will not need to be completed each time you log in. The mobile phone number verification lasts for 30 days, after which the Client Portal will prompt you again to re-confirm your mobile phone number for security purposes.

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)


What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)? Asset 1

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security feature which adds an extra layer of protection to your Client Portal.

 

It works by requiring two types of verification:

  • Mobile phone number verification

 

Next steps

Enter the unique 6-digit verification codes sent to your email address and mobile phone number (via SMS) when prompted during the login process.

 

For more information about the verification codes see: "Why am I being asked for a verification code when logging in?"

After taking you through security screening, we can update your contact details securely.

How often do I have to verify my mobile phone number? Asset 1

When you first log in, you will use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to verify your email address and mobile phone number.

 

For all future logins you will only need to verify your mobile phone number every 30 days.

 

If you select “Trust this device,” you won’t normally need to verify your details again unless you clear your cookies, change your browser settings, or use a different device.

How do I clear my browser cache? Asset 1

‘Cache’ is the information that your device or browser automatically stores the first time you open an application or visit a website, allowing you to gain faster access.

 

When too much information is stored or files are outdated, your browser or device can sometimes block new information (like login details) from being entered or stored on your device.

 

Clearing your browser cache is very easy to do and can help resolve login issues.

 

Below are the different ways to clear cache depending on the browser you are using:

 

  • In Google Chrome: Go to Settings > Privacy and security > Clear browsing data.
  • In Microsoft Edge: Go to Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Clear browsing data.
  • In Safari: Go to Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data > Remove All.
  • You can also simply press Ctrl + F5

 

Once you have cleared your cache, you may be prompted to verify your device again when you next login to the Client Portal.


Why am I being logged out of the Client Portal? Asset 1

For security reasons, the Client Portal will automatically log you out after a 5 minute period of inactivity.

 

This helps protect your account if you leave your device unattended.

 

Simply log in again to continue.
