Enhancing Security with Multi-Factor Authentication at Holdings

Keeping your business’s money safe is our top priority. That’s why Holdings uses Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)—an extra layer of security that protects your high-yield account, even if your password is compromised.

How MFA Works at Holdings

  • Download an authenticator app (like Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, Duo Mobile, or LastPass Authenticator) on your smartphone.

  • Scan the QR code during setup to connect the app to your Holdings account.

  • Enter the unique 6-digit code from your app every time you log in—this code refreshes every 30 seconds for maximum security.

This approach follows zero-trust security best practices, requiring verification at each access point to your business’s financial data.

Why MFA is Essential for Your Business

  • Blocks unauthorized access: Even if someone gets your password, they can’t access your account without your MFA code.

  • Prevents phishing attacks: MFA makes it much harder for attackers to break in, even if you accidentally share your password.

  • Protects your business funds: Only verified users can move money or access sensitive information.

  • Works with other security features: MFA is just one part of our security suite, alongside Money Movement Controls and up to $3M in FDIC insurance.

Troubleshooting MFA Issues

Device Change or Loss:
If you get a new phone or lose your device, you’ll need to reconfigure your authenticator app. Contact Holdings support for help restoring secure access.

Time Sync Problems:
If your code isn’t working, make sure your phone’s clock is synced—most authenticator apps have a “sync” feature.

App Malfunctions:
Try restarting your device or reinstalling the app. For persistent issues, our support team is here to help.
