Two things are happening: we are all increasingly using online, cloud, IT technologies in everyday life (especially financially), and there is a corresponding rise in cyber-crime (phishing scams / data breaches / etc).
To counteract this, Transact has introduced a 2FA (Two Factor Authentication) system for logging in to your account and/or making transactions. This extra layer of protection works by combining something you know (like a password) with another factor, such as something you have (a code from your phone) or something inherent (like a fingerprint or face scan). This second layer of security helps prevent unauthorized access, even if your password is compromised.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any concerns with logging into your Transact account.
