How do I set up 2FA / Google Authenticator
Two Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security process in which the user provides two different authentication factors to verify themselves to better protect both the user's credentials and the resources. 2FA includes Email Verification, Phone Verification and Google Authentication.
After binding 2FA, signing into your account or withdrawal will require your password, verification codes and/or 6 digits generated code from Google Authenticator App (GA).
When signed up with Email, you can only bind Phone and Google Authentication (shown below). Vice versa if signed up with a phone, you can only bind Email and Google Authentication.
In order to Bind your GA or Phone; Please follow these steps.
