How does Narvi use two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication is a two-step verification process which provides enhanced login security for your Narvi account. When you create an account with Narvi, you will be sent an SMS as a second-factor authentication which will confirm your phone number.

From then, whenever you want to log in, make a transaction, or add users, you will be asked to complete SMS two-factor authentication. Our default authentication security method is SMS verification but you change this using any other secure dual-factor authentication method, for example, the Google Authenticator app. We support all applications with a Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) protocol.
