# How to add Carriers for Automated Remarketing

## Use this guide to add carrier access in ReFocus so we can quote successfully for automated remarketing.

#### ✅ Before you click anything (required)

### This should be completed by the person assigned to carrier setup

Proceed only if you have:

- ✅ **ReFocus AI:** Account Admin
- ✅ **Carrier portals:** Can create/manage users
- ✅ **Email system:** Can set up forwarding (or can pull in IT immediately)

If you’re missing any of the above: **STOP** and involve the right admin(s). Carrier setup will fail without these.

---

#### ✅ Step 0 — Choose the correct path (pick one)

### **Path A (preferred): Dedicated ReFocus Credentials**

Use this when the carrier allows a separate login for support/unlicensed users.  
➡️ You will **create a new carrier portal user** using the **exact ReFocus-provided email shown in the carrier settings page**.

### **Path B: Agency-Provided (Licensed) Credentials**

Use this when the carrier requires logins tied to licensed agents.  
➡️ You will **enter a licensed user’s login** and set up **MFA email forwarding** from that mailbox.

Not sure? **STOP** and confirm before you continue.

---

#### ✅ Step 1 — Open the carrier in ReFocus

**![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jul-18-2025-06-14-10-9396-PM.png?width=663&height=162&name=image-png-Jul-18-2025-06-14-10-9396-PM.png)**

1. Log in to ReFocus: **app.refocusai.com**
2. Go to **Settings ➡️ Carriers**
3. Search for the carrier → click it to open the carrier settings page

**Next:** follow **Path A** *or* **Path B** below.

---

### Path A — Dedicated ReFocus Credentials

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-41-51-5693-PM.png?width=540&height=118&name=image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-41-51-5693-PM.png)

#### A1) Copy the exact ReFocus email (must-do)

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-44-52-2603-PM.png?width=540&height=131&name=image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-44-52-2603-PM.png)

1. Under **Credential Details**, select **Dedicated ReFocus Credentials**
2. Copy the **ReFocus-provided email** shown on the page

⚠️ Use this exact email (do not use a generic inbox or placeholder)

If the carrier uses SMS MFA:

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-47-02-2197-PM.png?width=539&height=329&name=image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-47-02-2197-PM.png)

- Check **Do you require a phone number for SMS MFA**
- Copy the phone number provided by ReFocus (you’ll enter it in the carrier portal)

#### A2) Create the user inside the carrier portal

In the carrier portal, create a **new user**:

- Email: **(paste the ReFocus-provided email)**
- First Name: **Freddy**
- Last Name: **Focus**
- Agent Code: **Your agency code** (recommended when available)
- Phone (SMS MFA only): **Use the ReFocus-provided phone number**
- Date of Birth: **August 09, 1980**

✅ If you see “Send activation/invite email,” make sure it’s enabled.

#### A3) Enter credentials in ReFocus and save

Back in ReFocus:

1. Enter the **username/password** you created for that carrier user
2. Add agent code if applicable
3. Click **Save**

**What happens next:** ReFocus will confirm the carrier’s invite/MFA is received and complete verification.

If it’s not received, your **Customer Success Manager will notify you** and you should follow:

---

### Path B — Agency-Provided (Licensed) Credentials + MFA Forwarding

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-55-37-6572-PM.png?width=427&height=288&name=image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-55-37-6572-PM.png)

#### B1) Enter licensed credentials in ReFocus

1. Under **Credential Details**, select **Agency-Provided Credentials**
2. Enter the licensed user’s **username/password**
3. Add agent code if required
4. Copy the email shown in **MFA Forwarding Setup** (you will use it next)

#### B2) Create the forwarding rule

In the licensed user’s mailbox, create a rule to forward carrier MFA emails to the ReFocus forwarding address you copied.

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-57-46-0419-PM.png?width=423&height=297&name=image-png-Nov-19-2025-04-57-46-0419-PM.png)

 

💡If your organization blocks external forwarding, involve IT and follow:  
[https://knowledge.refocusai.com/how-to-set-up-mfa-email-forwarding-to-refocus-ai](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/how-to-set-up-mfa-email-forwarding-to-refocus-ai?hsLang=en)

#### B3) Save

Click **Save**. ReFocus will verify. If MFA isn’t received, your CSM will let you know.

---

### ✅ Step 2 — Set Lines of Business + States (required)

![](https://knowledge.refocusai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jul-18-2025-06-38-11-1442-PM.png?width=647&height=281&name=image-png-Jul-18-2025-06-38-11-1442-PM.png)

1. **Lines of Business:** select what you want to quote with this carrier
2. **States:** select **All** or choose specific states
3. Click **Save**

⚠️ ReFocus may remove states automatically when carriers decline new business in those states to avoid unnecessary quoting.
