2FA (Two-Factor Authentication)

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is required to create API tokens and process withdrawals through the dashboard. This layer protects your account and your money. You can use any TOTP authenticator app (Time-based One-Time Password), such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, 1Password, Authy or any other compatible TOTP app.

Click the API tab

Click Manage tokens

Click Authenticate to start the 2FA setup

Scan the QR Code with your authenticator app, or copy the secret code and add it manually.
Enter the 6-digit code generated by the app.
Click Confirm and activate.

Done. Go back to Manage tokens and create an API token with the required permissions.

If you can't scan the QR (manual entry)

Google Authenticator (or any TOTP app) generates time-based 6-digit codes. To add your Saq account manually:

Install a TOTP app from your phone's store (Google Play or App Store).
Open the app and tap the + button to add a new account.
Choose Enter a setup key or Enter code manually.
Copy the secret code shown in the Saq 2FA modal and paste it in the app exactly as it is, for example:
```
<YOUR-SECRET-CODE>
```
Give the account a name (for example, Saq).
The app will generate a 6-digit code that changes every 30 seconds. Use this code to Confirm and activate.

Keep your 2FA setup and recovery information in a safe place. You will need it if you change or lose your phone.

Tips

If the code shows as invalid, check that your phone's time is set to automatic synchronization and try again.
Keep your 2FA setup safe. If you change devices, you will need to reconfigure 2FA.
