[Platforms] What is 2-step verification and what can it be used for?

Last updated on Oct 22, 2025

2-step verification is a great way to increase the level of protection on your trading account. It adds an extra verification step, other than your account password, meaning that your account is secure from attackers even if your password becomes compromised.

This is because only you should have access to the extra verification key. 2-step verification is easy to setup from your Personal Area in just a few taps.

To use it, you must have Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator installed on your phone.
