Google Authenticator is an application designed to enhance the security of your account against theft or hacker attacks. It generates unique PIN codes that change periodically. By enabling Google Authenticator, you'll be asked to enter a different PIN code each time you log in or make a withdrawal. This feature can replace SMS verification with PIN codes if preferred. Additionally, activating Google Authenticator eliminates any extra charges for SMS verification during transactions.
