Zip Authenticator by ZipHQ, Inc. offers a user-friendly platform for managing two-factor authentication securely and efficiently, making it a must-have for anyone seeking to enhance their online security.

Zip Authenticator enhances security for financial transactions on Zip (ziphq.com) by introducing an additional layer of verification. It ensures users are fully informed about pending transactions, providing detailed information regarding the transaction type, amount, and recipient before granting approval via a connected mobile device. This system delivers robust two-factor authentication for financial transactions, aligning with the EU Secure Customer Authentication (SCA) regulations.

Setting up Zip Authenticator is a straightforward process. Users must first establish a connection with a mobile device and create a personal identification number (PIN). As users engage in payment-related tasks within Zip, they will be prompted to enter their PIN, generating a unique QR code. This QR code can then be scanned using the Zip Authenticator app to confirm the user's identity.

Key features of Zip Authenticator include:

Provides multi-factor authentication for business-to-business payment activities within Zip (ziphq.com).
Displays comprehensive payment details such as the transaction amount and recipient within the authentication notification.
Helps organizations leveraging Zip for payments adhere to the EU Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) standards.
Straightforward setup process facilitated through QR code integration.

To enable Zip Authenticator in conjunction with Zip, users must configure a unique PIN within their Zip account under Personal Settings. Detailed instructions on initiating this process can be found at www.ziphq.com/personal-settings/payout-authentication.
