How do I enable two-factor authentication on my casino account?

As a gaming advisor to many people, I can say that implementing two-factor authentication is pretty simple. Log in to your casino website and find “Security Settings” or “Account Settings” (typically under the user icon in the top-right corner). Most casinos use Google Authenticator or something similar. Enable 2FA, and they’ll likely ask you to scan a QR code in the app, after which you enter the generated code to activate. Some might send you a backup code; store this carefully. If you can’t locate the 2FA feature, go to the casino’s Help page or speak with customer support via live chat (many sites now provide a tutorial). But whatever you do, don’t lose the backup code!

Two-factor authentication is typically available under your Account or Security Settings in most online casino accounts. It may be listed as “Two Factor Authentication” or “2FA” and all that’s required are your mobile phone number or Google Authenticator. If you can’t find it, try looking at the casino’s FAQ help page, where many operators provide instructions on how to do it. There are plenty of step-by-step walkthroughs on online forums. Try searching on the gambling subreddits r/Gambling or r/Casino. You could also leave a question in our Q&A section, where we can take you through the process from start to finish.

You can enable 2FA in most online casinos. Go to My Account > Settings> Security or Two-Factor Authentication. You can also use Google Authenticator or SMS codes. Some mobile video slots can add your phone number as a second factor. If you don’t know what to do, check the casino’s Help section. This feature isn’t that new; someone else probably knows what to do. Take a few minutes to figure out how it works. It will be worth it. Play responsibly.
