Go to the “My Data/Security Settings” section of your Sered account.
Then click the green button that says “Click here to Activate.”

Then, assign an additional name to identify the account.

Remember to save the backup code. It is essential to access your account in situations where you cannot complete two-factor authentication. Make sure to write it down in a safe place, as it will be necessary in case of loss or lack of the second factor.
