Open your two-factor authentication app (Authy or Google Authenticator) on your phone.
Select "Add another account" and scan the QR code presented in the Airtm settings.
Enter the six-digit code before it expires (usually valid for 20 seconds) and click the "Validate and Enable" button.
Customize Your Two-Factor Authentication Experience
Once you've enabled 2FA, you can customize your experience by selecting the options that best fit your needs. You can enable 2FA for:
