How do I change my email address?
You can change your email address on your Profile page. Navigate to the Profile page and tap the current email address in the app or click ‘Change’ on the website to edit. You will need to have your password (and 2FA if applicable) ready in order to edit your email address.
The new address will receive an email to finalize the changes made. If you are experiencing difficulty locating this email, please contact Support. Once completed, you should only use the new email address to sign into your account.

How do I change my password?
You can change your password from the Sign-in page. Simply click ‘Forgot password?’ and enter your email address. You should receive an email with instructions and a direct link to change your password. If you are experiencing difficulty locating this email, please contact Support.
You can also change your password from within your account by navigating to the Profile page, then clicking Password. You will need to enter your current password, and then create a new password.

How do I disable 2FA on my account?
The steps taken to disable 2FA on your account differ based on whether you are able to login or not:

You will see a warning message informing you that disabling 2FA will result in a 7-day withdrawal wait period as a security precaution. Click ‘Continue’ and enter the 6-digit code from your Authenticator app once again to disable 2FA.
- I can’t login -- Please contact our Support team. Be prepared to be asked to verify your identity in order to confirm that the account holder is making the request.
