Setting Up 2FA

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) in ARCHER

Adding 2FA to your ARCHER account provides an extra layer of protection. Follow these simple steps to secure your account using your preferred authenticator app.


🔐 Set Up 2FA in Under 30 Seconds

Step 1: Navigate to the Security Settings

In ARCHER, go to Settings > Security/2FA, then click on Activate 2FA. This will open the Archer 2FA website page.

Step 2: Generate Your 2FA Key

ARCHER will show a QR code along with a backup key. This information is needed to connect your account with an authenticator app.

Step 3: Add ARCHER to Your Authenticator App

Open your preferred authenticator (e.g., Google Authenticator, Authy).

For Google Authenticator:

  • Tap the plus (+) button in the bottom-right.

  • Choose "Scan a QR code" and scan the one shown in ARCHER.

  • Or choose "Enter a setup key" and manually input the backup key. Be sure the type is set to Time-based.

Step 4: Enter the Verification Code

Your app will now generate a 6-digit verification code. Enter this code in ARCHER to complete the setup.


✅ 2FA Successfully Enabled!

You’ve now secured your ARCHER account with 2FA—great job! 🎉


Managing 2FA in ARCHER

  • Backup Key: Store your backup key somewhere safe. If you lose access to your authenticator app, this key allows you to restore your 2FA settings.

  • Disabling 2FA: To disable 2FA, revisit the Security/2FA section and follow the steps. You’ll need to enter a verification code to confirm.


Why Use 2FA?

  • Stronger Account Security: Helps prevent unauthorized access.

  • Transaction Protection: Adds a safeguard for critical actions like exporting keys or withdrawing funds.

  • Recovery Assurance: Your backup key lets you restore access easily if needed.

ARCHER makes account security simple and powerful—so you can trade with confidence.
