Choose a second factor
UKC supports a six-digit code sent to the login email and time-based codes from an authenticator app. Both protect the account beyond its password, but they suit different users.
UKC Email 2FASimple and familiar.
TOTPFast, offline app codes.
Backup codeRecovery for either choice.
Email method
UKC sends a six-digit code to the login email. It expires after ten minutes. A delayed SMS fallback may appear after sixty seconds when a valid UK mobile number is held.
Authenticator method
TOTP works without email delivery or mobile reception. It requires a compatible authenticator app, correct device time and a recovery plan if the device is lost.
Make the choice
Only one primary method is active at a time. Whichever you choose, secure the email account, store the backup code separately and never disclose a live code.
