How do I use backup codes for two-factor authentication (2FA)?

Backup codes are a set of one-time-use codes that you can use to access your account if you lose access to your primary two-factor authentication (2FA) method, such as your authenticator app or passkey.

When you enable 2FA on your account, we provide you with a set of backup codes. It's crucial to store these codes in a safe and secure location, such as a password manager or a physical safe, because they are the only way to regain access to your account if you can't use your regular 2FA method.

Each backup code can only be used once. After using a backup code to log in, it becomes invalid.

If you ever run out of backup codes, you can generate a new set from your account settings. This will invalidate any unused codes from the previous set, so make sure to store the new codes securely.
