Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is an additional security layer for online accounts. It requires users to provide multiple forms of identification before accessing their accounts, ensuring that even if one factor (like your password) is compromised, your account remains secure. Typically, MFA combines something you know (your password) with something you have (a phone or an authentication app).
Why is MFA Important?
Activating MFA enhances the security of your FantaZ account by requiring a second form of verification. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access, protecting your personal information and ensuring your account's integrity.
Before activating MFA
- Verified Phone Number: If you plan to use SMS for authentication, ensure your phone number is added and verified in your FantaZ account settings.
- Authentication App: If you plan to use an authentication app, download and install a compatible app on your mobile device, such as Google Authenticator or Authy.

- Log in to your FantaZ account.
