Enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) can greatly enhance your account security. We recommend using Authy as it's more secure. To set up 2FA with Twilio Authy follow the steps below:
Twilio Authy Requirements:
- Download the Authy app
Setting up Authy:
- Login to your Paxful account on a different device.
-
Hover over your username on the top right of the page and click
Settings from the menu.
-
On the settings menu, click
Security
- On the security page, under Two-factor authentication (2FA) settings, choose Authy.
-
Click Activate now and a QR code appears.
- Scan the QR code with your phone by using the Authy app. A 6-digit code will appear on the app or you can copy the code for manual setup.
- Enter the 6-digit code into the field next to the QR code. Your code will be automatically submitted once you input the code.
- Once your code is automatically submitted, a menu will appear.
To verify that 2FA via Twilio Authy is turned on, make sure it says Activated. For more security, check all the toggles under the Enable 2FA column. -
When all toggles are blue, you’re done! 2FA via Twilio Authy is set up.
