DRE utilizes a secure, browser-based OAuth2 flow with PKCE to authenticate with iRacing.
Does DRE store my password?
No. All local storage of credentials has been removed. DRE does not store your password locally or in the cloud.
How it works
- Browser Flow: DRE opens your default browser to the iRacing login page.
- Authentication: You enter your credentials (and 2FA if active) directly on the iRacing site.
- Token Exchange: iRacing passes a secure token back to DRE to authorize the connection.
Usage
This token allows DRE to validate your license and retrieve API data such as weather forecasts and “Next Race” information. You can manage this connection in Settings -> Sim Connection.
DRE Credentials
User security is a top priority. To ensure that your information remains confidential, DRE uses Auth0—a leading identity management platform trusted by companies worldwide—to manage user authentication.
Auth0 is a robust authentication and authorization platform that offers a variety of features including Single Sign-On, Multi-Factor Authentication, and social login capabilities. It is compliant with the latest security protocols, providing a secure and streamlined experience for our users.
Account social logins, or emails + passwords entered into DRE are safely stored at Auth0. They are encrypted using industry-standard encryption algorithms during transmission and storage.
Only authorized personnel have access to your account information, and even then, they do not have access to your passwords, thanks to Auth0’s secure handling of sensitive information.
DRE doesn’t store your password on its servers.
Auth0, a leading identity management platform trusted by companies worldwide, handles all user credential storage using state-of-the-art security mechanisms, including encryption and secure transmission protocols.
Only authorized personnel have access to your account information, and even then, they do not have access to your passwords, thanks to Auth0’s secure handling of sensitive information.
iRacing credentials entered into DRE are stored offline on your PC only.

You should try logging out of the app and logging back in with any other email addresses you may have used.
- Note that you must be signed in with the same email you used to make the purchase to see the subscription.
- Note that Apple, Google, and Microsoft may have sent receipts to the email address you have associated with those services and not the email address you used to log into DRE.
If the subscription is not found in the DRE app, you should try clicking the refresh button from the Account view of the app. If that doesn’t work, try logging out, and then back in.
After you’ve logged in head to My Subscription in My Account.

5. In order to determine if your issue is caused by a specific browser, please see if the same thing happens when you try with another browser type (Google Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge). Please uninstall/disable any unnecessary add-ons and extensions that are installed on the browser.
6. If you have attempted 5 purchases within a 30 minute period, using the same payment form, it will decline any other attempts for suspected fraud. Please wait some time before trying again or use a different payment method.
