If you do not have access to your two factor authentication device you can use any of the following passwords instead of a regular security code. Each one of these emergency passwords is immediately destroyed upon use. We recommend printing these passwords out and keeping the printout in a safe and accessible location, eg your wallet or a safety deposit box or keeping it safe somewhere in your desktop (as shown below)

There are no emergency one time passwords generated in your account. The passwords will be generated automatically and displayed here as soon as you activate two factor authentication.

Step 8:

Click on 'Submit'.


Password should be entered each time a user wants to enable or disable two factor authentication.
