FAQ: Two Factor Authentication Account Changes
To improve your account security, we are phasing out the below static Two Factor Authentication
(2FA) options from the exchange as we are committed to providing a secure experience for our users:
1. 4-8 Digit PinCode
2. Password
3. Security Questions
If you login from a new IP address, you will be prompted to enter a dynamic unique code that will be emailed to your registered email address
every time you sign in (Email Two Factor Authentication). Email will become your default Two Factor Authentication for every login after that.
All users who have set their login 2FA to be a static PinCode, Password or Security Question will be affected by this change if they attempt to login from a new IP address.
If you have your login 2FA set to static PinCode, Password or Security Question, you will now be required to enter a unique code
that will be emailed to your registered email address (Email Two Factor Authentication) for every login.
NOTE: The unique code will expire after 15 minutes.
What if my Two Factor Authentication default is either an Authentication Application
(such as Google Authenticator or Authy) or a Cryptopia Authentication Device?
If you have your account already set to a dynamic 2FA through either an Authentication Application
(such as Google Authenticator or Authy), or you use a Cryptopia Two Factor Authentication Device,
there will be no change to the way you sign into your account.
What if I can’t log into my account?
You can send us a message via Facebook Messenger and we will respond within 24 hours.

with the subject ‘2FA Reset’.
