Complete tips for securing a Tokopedia account which we released earlier, today we will specifically discuss the extra security feature available in Tokopedia, namely the Google Authenticator feature that allows you to implement a second layer of security procedures in addition to passwords.

Preparation

• Download and install Google Authenticator app from Play Store.
• Once installed, do nothing. Proceed to the Steps step below.

Steps

• Open Tokopedia web from PC, then hover over profile and click Arrangement.

• Select menu Google Authenticator and scroll down then click the button Enable Google Authenticator.

• So, a page like this opens.

• Until here, hold on, don't close it.
• Now run the Google Authenticator app on smartphone you, and tap menu Scan a barcode.

• Point the camera at the barcode that appears on your PC screen until the code appears on your smartphone screen.
