Dext Prepare 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

dext.com Supported

Dext Prepare lets you secure your account with an authenticator app. With 2FA on, each login needs a fresh 6-digit code, keeping your Dext Prepare account safe even if your password leaks.

A Dext Prepare account can be tied to your money and personal finances, so a stolen password is a direct financial risk. Dext Prepare secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

How to recover your Dext Prepare account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Dext Prepare gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Dext Prepare doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Dext Prepare's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
