Enable two-step verification

For better account security, set up two-step verification (2SV). If you haven’t gotten the scoop on how 2SV works, read What is two-step verification? before you continue.

1. Go to your ELITE WEB Co. Login & PIN page. You might be prompted to sign in.
2. Under 2-Step Verification, select Add Verification.
   .
3. Choose the 2SV method you’d like to use and then select Next:
   • Authenticator app (recommended): An authentication app, like Google Authenticator or Authy, will create the code. Choose this method for most ELITE WEB Co. accounts.
   • SMS text messages: The code will be sent to you as a text. This method is great for convenience but we suggest using it as a backup since it’s not as secure.
   • Security key: A device plugged into your computer’s USB port will be used for authentication. Use this method if you’re a domain investor or want the highest level of security.
4. Complete the setup process according to the method you selected:
   • If you chose an Authenticator App, follow the instructions to install an app, scan the bar code, and enter the authentication code. When you’re done, select Continue.
   • If you selected SMS text messages, enter your mobile phone number and Continue. Enter the code we text you (it’s good for the next 20 minutes), and then select Save.
   • If you selected Security Key, set up the hardware Security key (such as a Yubikey or Google Titan).
5. Select Add Backup and repeat steps 3 and 4 to choose a backup method for 2SV.

Note: To minimize downtime, set your backup 2SV on a different device. For example, if your main 2SV is an authenticator app on your laptop, set SMS on your phone as the backup method.
