Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of security to your Stake account.
Set it up easily through your Security Settings using a trusted authenticator app like Google Authenticator.
With MFA enabled, you’ll need a one-time password (OTP) from your app each time you log in, protecting your account even if your password is compromised.
