Enabling or Disabling Two-Step Verification

We recommend enabling two-step verification (sometimes referred to as two-factor authentication or 2FA) on your account for an added level of security. Two-step verification lets you require a text message code or authenticator application prompt be completed to access your account.

Enable or disable two-step verification within your Account Settings under the Account security section.

Select one of the following options to verify your identity: None, Authenticator app, or SMS text message.

None - Select None and click Continue.

A two-step verification pop-up is displayed, with the 'None' radio button selected. The 'Authenticator app' and 'SMS text message' are listed as the verification method options.

Authenticator app - Choose a method for verifying your identity by downloading your preferred authenticator app supported by Ting:
