Welcome to another edition of Origin Spotlight! In this edition, we’re focusing on Login Verification, and how it’s improved to make sure you’re fully in charge of your account security.

KEEPING YOUR ACCOUNT SECURE JUST GOT EASIER

Login Verification helps keep your account safe. Whenever you log in from a new or unrecognized device, we’ll send you a one-time verification code so we know it’s you.

Can’t access your verification code? No worries! We’re solving that problem by giving you more verification options to choose from.

WHAT’S CHANGING?

Instead of having just one method to verify yourself, it’s now possible to choose from multiple methods, on the fly:





Primary email

Secondary email

Text message

Authenticator

Sounds good? First log in to your account settings page, and enable the options you want to use via the Security tab. Got your preferred methods set up? You’ll be able to select any method you’ve enabled next time you login.

And while you’re at it, be sure to View and store your Backup Codes. You can use them as an emergency login.

Locked out of your account? Ain’t nobody got time for that! With multiple verification methods, you’re always ready to login, and your account is secure too!
