    Why you should use 2FA for Ko-fi?

    Ko-fi is a popular platform for creators to receive support from their fans. However, with the rise of cyber attacks, it's important to take extra precautions to protect your account. Enabling 2-factor authentication (2FA) is a simple and effective way to do so.
     
    
     By enabling 2FA on your Ko-fi account, you add an extra layer of security to your login process. This means that even if someone manages to obtain your password, they won't be able to access your account without the second factor, which is usually a code sent to your phone or generated by an app.
     
    
     At Authenticator, we provide a secure and convenient way to store your 2FA codes. Our app encrypts your data and stores it locally on your device, so you don't have to worry about your codes being compromised. Plus, with our backup and restore feature, you can easily transfer your codes to a new device if needed.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA and using our app, there are other security and privacy tips you should follow to protect your Ko-fi account. Make sure to use a strong and unique password, avoid using public Wi-Fi when accessing your account, and be wary of phishing scams.
     
    
     Overall, enabling 2FA is a simple and effective way to protect your Ko-fi account from unauthorized access. By using Authenticator to store your codes, you can have peace of mind knowing that your data is secure.
