Confirm Activation
Enter the code from your phone into the website field and click 'Verify'. Your account is now protected and won't open without your phone.
What if I lose my phone?
- Upon activation, you get 'Backup Codes'. Save them in a very safe place (offline).
- You can use these codes to log in once in emergencies.
- If you lose both phone and codes, you'll need to contact support and verify ID to recover account.
- We recommend Authy as it keeps an encrypted cloud backup.
