    Why you should use 2FA for Questrade?

    Questrade is a popular online brokerage platform that allows users to invest in stocks, ETFs, and other financial products. While Questrade takes security seriously, it's always a good idea to add an extra layer of protection to your account by enabling 2-factor authentication (2FA).
     
    
     2FA is a security feature that requires users to provide two forms of identification before accessing their account. This can include something you know (like a password) and something you have (like a code generated by an app). By enabling 2FA on your Questrade account, you can help prevent unauthorized access and protect your investments.
     
    
     To enable 2FA on Questrade, you can use our Authenticator app. Simply download the app, add your Questrade account, and follow the instructions to set up 2FA. Once enabled, you'll need to enter a code from the app in addition to your password every time you log in to Questrade.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other steps you can take to protect your Questrade account. Make sure to use a strong, unique password and never share it with anyone. Avoid using public Wi-Fi or unsecured networks when accessing your account, and be wary of phishing scams that may try to trick you into giving away your login information.
     
    
     By taking these steps and enabling 2FA, you can help ensure the security and privacy of your Questrade account.
