How to enable 2FA on 2Checkout

← 2Checkout overview Supported

2Checkout supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your 2Checkout account.

Step-by-step setup

1
Sign in to 2Checkout and open your 2Checkout account security settings.
2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code 2Checkout displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your 2Checkout account.
5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes 2Checkout gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on 2Checkout can change — the official 2Checkout 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
