Enabling Your Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) or Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Step 1a

Step 1b
Click your name in the upper right corner of the admin panel. Select “Account Settings” from the dropdown menu. The Basic Info and Security Settings page will appear.

To set it for activation, click the “Enable” button on the right side.

A pop-up box that contains a QR code for scanning will appear. Scan it using your mobile phone or authenticator app to generate the code in order to enable the two-factor authentication. Once a code is available, enter the 6 digit code and click “Enable 2FA” to confirm.
Notes:
After enabling your 2FA, your UniPayment account will not be able to make any withdrawals or refunds within 24 hours. However, the creation and sending of invoices will not be affected.
If you have re-enabled your 2FA, please make sure to delete the old 2FA in your authenticator app before re-scanning the QR code to prevent getting an error.
