Two-Factor Authentication adds an extra layer of security to your account. Even if someone knows your password, they can't access your account without the verification code from your phone.
What is 2FA?
2FA requires two forms of verification to log in:
- Your password (something you know).
- A time-based code from an authenticator app (something you have).
Setting Up 2FA
- Go to Settings > Security.
- Click Enable Two-Factor Authentication.
- You'll see a QR code on screen.
- Open your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or any TOTP app).
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app.
- Enter the 6-digit code displayed in your authenticator app to confirm setup.
- Save your backup codes — These are one-time recovery codes in case you lose access to your authenticator app.
Logging In with 2FA
- Enter your email and password as usual.
- You'll be prompted for a verification code.
- Open your authenticator app and enter the current 6-digit code.
- Click Verify to complete login.
Backup Codes
When you set up 2FA, you'll receive a set of backup codes. These are single-use codes that let you access your account if you can't use your authenticator app.
- Store them safely — Write them down or save them in a secure location.
- Each code can only be used once.
- If you run out of backup codes, you can generate new ones from your security settings.
Important: If you lose both your authenticator app and your backup codes, getting back into your account will require contacting support and verifying your identity.
Disabling 2FA
- Go to Settings > Security.
- Click Disable Two-Factor Authentication.
- Enter your verification code to confirm.
Note: We strongly recommend keeping 2FA enabled to protect your account, especially if you're a creator with earnings on the platform.
