Introduction

This article explains what the Email Authentication code is and how it helps protect your Coinlocally account from unauthorized access and phishing attempts.

Email Authentication is a security factor that verifies your identity using one of the following methods:

Magic Link

A secure link sent to your email that confirms your login or action.

6‑digit One‑Time Password (OTP)

A temporary 6‑digit code sent to your email to ensure the request is legitimate.

These authentication methods help prevent forged messages, spam, and phishing attempts by confirming that the email belongs to you.

Additional notes

• Email authentication is required for login, withdrawals, and security changes.
• OTP codes expire quickly—enter them promptly.
• Always keep your email account secure.

Common Issues

• Not receiving the code may be due to spam filtering.
• Incorrect email spelling prevents delivery.
• Using an expired OTP results in an error.

Tip: Check your spam/junk folder if the code does not arrive.
