By the end of this guide you'll have two-factor authentication set up on your Covercy investor portal, so that sensitive actions are confirmed with a verification code sent to your phone.
Note
Two-factor authentication adds a second step when you take a sensitive action, such as one involving your banking details. After you start the action, Covercy sends a verification code to your phone, and you enter that code to continue. To use it, you'll need access to the phone number on your account.
Covercy will never ask you to share your password, two-factor codes, or banking credentials by email, text, or phone. If a message asks you to do this, don't respond — open Covercy yourself and continue as usual.
Add your phone number
- Sign in to your Covercy investor portal.
- Open your account settings and go to the two-factor authentication section.
- Choose your country and enter your phone number.
- Save your changes. Covercy uses this number to send your verification codes.
Tip
Use a phone number you can reliably reach when you're working in your portal. If you change phones or numbers, update it here so you keep receiving your codes.
Complete a verification when prompted
- Start the sensitive action you want to take, such as one involving your banking details.
