We are excited to announce that two-step verification is now available for all users on StockX.
Thatās right, the StockX platform continues to get safer and stronger with the addition of two-step verification. Once enabled, two-step verification requires you to enter a code on a trusted mobile device in addition to your StockX password at sign-in.
If youāre wondering why having more steps to sign-in is a good thing, the short answer is protection. Weāre all human and sometimes donāt have the strongest passwords and thatās when two-step verification is a game changer. It enhances the protection of your StockX account, even if your password is ever compromised for whatever reason i.e. pet names.
The set-up is simple too. First, you will need to update your StockX app. Then all you need is a trustworthy phone that can receive SMS messages so you can enable your new two-step verification. If you have that, the rest is a breeze by just following these steps:
- Head to the Security tab under your account.
- Click āTurn Onā to begin the two-step verification set-up.
- Input your cell phone number.
- Weāll send you a one-time code via SMS.
- Enter the code on the login screen.
- Remember to save the recovery code so you can still sign in if you donāt have access to a trusted device or your verified email.
Once youāve completed the steps, youāre good to go! Safe and secure shopping is at your fingertips and better than ever before.
StockX now also offers email as an option for a one-time password to log in to your account.
- After attempting to log in, select āTry another methodā at the bottom of the screen.
- From there, you can select between SMS, Email, or a Recovery code to generate a one-time password.
- After selecting Email, your account address will be pre-populated, and the one-time login code will be sent to your verified email address.
- Enter the code on the login screen.
