A few minutes of setup protects everything you hold.
Do these now
- Strong, unique password — long, not reused anywhere else. Or use a passkey.
- Enable 2FA with an authenticator app — see How to enable 2FA.
- Set an anti-phishing code so you can spot fake Coinwaka emails — see How anti-phishing code works.
- Add a transaction PIN for withdrawals and sensitive actions.
- Review your devices and sign out of any you don't recognize.
Never
- Never share your password, 2FA code, PIN, or recovery codes — not even with "support".
- Never click login links from messages; type the official URL yourself.
- Never approve an M-Pesa or login prompt you didn't start.
