How can I enable 2FA in app?

As Abra grows, so does our user base. With this growth comes users from all technical comfort levels. Due to this, our team is actively working on adding additional layers of security to the Abra app in an easy and accessible way.

Abra is proud to announce we've added a 2-Factor Authentication option to the Abra app. Once enabled, your 2FA code will be required each time a cryptocurrency withdrawal is initiated, a fiat withdrawal is initiated, when sending money to an Abra user or when viewing your recovery phrase.

• In order to use the 2FA feature, you must be Global KYC approved
