Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your CoinGate account.
It helps protect your login and sensitive account actions by requiring both your password and a code from an authentication app.
Sign-in verification: As part of our security improvements, every sign-in to CoinGate now requires an extra verification step. If you have 2FA enabled, enter the code from your authentication app. If you do not use 2FA, we will send a one-time code (OTP) to your registered email address – enter it to complete the sign-in.
How to enable 2FA
-
Log in to your CoinGate account.
-
Go to Settings → Security.
-
Under the Two-Factor Authentication section, click Enable 2FA.
-
Open your preferred authentication app (such as Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator).
-
Scan the QR code displayed on the CoinGate dashboard, or enter the code manually.
-
The app will generate a 6-digit code — enter it to confirm and complete setup.
Once enabled, you’ll be asked for a verification code each time you log in or perform sensitive actions (like changing security settings or approving withdrawals).
