Add an extra layer of security
Your multi-factor authentication methods will be required to withdraw funds from your account.
Keep the bad guys out
Even if someone else has access to your account, it won’t be enough to withdraw money from your account.
What authentication do you support?
We support TOTP via an authentication app like Google authenticator. Use the application on your phone to get two-factor authentication codes when prompted. We also support a secondary authentication method, backup codes, both will be needed to set up MFA on your account.
