Setting Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

How does 2FA work?

Upon logging in, you will enter your email and password (the first "factor") as per usual:

If 2FA is enabled on your account, you will be prompted to enter a one-time password (the second "factor").

You will need to then open a time-based one-time password (TOTP) generation app like Authy or Google Authenticator. To complete the login process, enter the OTP that was generated via the app (more on this later):

Generating OTPs
A one-time password can be generated using an app like Authy or Google Authenticator.

• Authy has apps for Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS. It also has a Chrome Extension that you can use. https://authy.com/download/
• Google Authenticator has an app for Android and iOS: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1066447

How do I enable 2FA?

Visit orbxdirect.com/account/update/tfa. You’ll be presented with a QR code that you can scan with the aforementioned mobile app (and a code below if you don't have an Android or iOS device):

If you’re using Authy for Chrome, login to the extension and click the settings icon. Then navigate to the “external accounts” tab. At the bottom, there will be a red button to “add authenticator account”. Click on the button then enter the code you saw on OrbxDirect (the code below the QR code):

You can then select a key colour and name:

Finally, click [Done] and close the settings window.

In the main tokens list, you’ll see one-time passwords being generated for your OrbxDirect account every 30 seconds.
