Important - Please make sure to save the backup codes provided in a safe place.

1. What do I need before enabling 2FA?

  • An Authenticator App: You can download Google Authenticator or any other authenticator app (e.g., Authy, Microsoft Authenticator) from the Google Play Store (Android) or App Store (iOS).

  • Tap the + or Add button in the app.

  • Use your phone’s camera to scan the QR code displayed on the screen.

Step 5: Enter the Code from the Authenticator App
  • After scanning the QR code, the app will generate a 6-digit code.

  • Enter this code 

Step 6: Save Your Backup Codes ( Important)
  • You will be provided with  backup codes in case you lose access to your authenticator app. Save these codes in a secure place (e.g., a password manager).

Step 7: Confirm and Finish Setup
  • Once the code is verified, you should receive a confirmation that 2FA is enabled.

  • From now on, when you log in, you'll be asked to provide the 6-digit code from your authenticator app every time you submit a redemption request.

3. How do I use 2FA to log in after enabling it?

  • Open your authenticator app, find the code for your account, and type it in.
