2-Factor Authentication

Enabling 2FA

2FA (2-Factor Authentication) is a method of securing your account even more than just a password, requiring you to enter in a 6 digit code that you get from an authenticator app, before you can access your account.

  1. To enable 2-Factor Authentication, simply click the button titled Enable Two-Step.
  2. Now, scan the QR code using an Authenticator app (ex. Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator), or enter in the 32-digit code into an Authenticator app.
  3. You will now get a 6-digit code (ex 553990) in your Authenticator app, enter this code into the text field below.
  4. Now just enter your account password into the text field titled Password, and press Enable
  5. You will now get a screen with 10 different backup codes. Store these in a safe place, where you won’t lose them, as these codes are the only way to recover your account if you lose the 2FA method.

You have now successfully enabled 2FA on your account.

Disabling 2FA

  1. To disable 2-Factor Authentication, simply click the button titled Disable Two-Step.
  2. Now just enter your account password into the text field titled Password, and press Disable.

You have now successfully disabled 2FA on your account.
