2FA will be familiar to Singaporeans who use online banking or make payments online. It involves receiving a One-Time Password (OTP) from your bank, and entering that OTP when prompted, when logging into an account or making a payment online
You can choose to receive OTPs either through a mobile app, which will typically involve scanning a QR code on screen, or by SMS. In the unlikely event that either method should fail, the other will be available as an alternative. Should both fail or be unavailable, for instance if you have difficulty receiving messages while overseas, we can provide OTPs over the phone. For more information on how to set-up 2FA, please visit our learn section.
Once you have switched 2FA on for your account, it will become a mandatory step in the log-in process each time you access your account, through our online trading platform and mobile apps.
Of the many OTP Generator smartphone apps available free of charge, we would recommend the Google Authenticator app. It is highly rated by users, it conforms to the RFC 6238 standard, and it is available across iPhone, Android, BlackBerry and Windows devices
