Turn on two-step verification
On this page
Here you turn on two-step verification for your account. It is mandatory on OnBio because your account moves money. OnBio offers you a passkey, with which you sign in and confirm with your fingerprint, your face or the PIN of the device, with no codes. If you prefer, you link a verification app on your phone, such as Google Authenticator, 1Password or Authy. Either way you end by saving your recovery codes.
