Protect your account with two-factor authentication.

Updated over a month ago

Two-factor authentication 2FA is the best way to add an extra layer of security to your account.

When 2FA is enabled, you will be prompted to verify your identity when logging in or changing account security settings. We highly recommend every user setting up 2FA and installing an authentication app on your mobile device.

Recommended Authenticator Apps:

  • Google Authenticator is the default app to use. It has no online backup, so you should store all secret codes somewhere safe. Otherwise, you lose all 2FA access if something happens with your device.

  • Authy is our favourite because it has online backups linked to your phone number. You can restore everything in one click and also install additional 2FA apps in case your original device is lost or stolen.

We recommend to use your mobile device, but you can also find apps for PC.
