Samsung Pay/Sofi requires 2FA for making purchases in the stores

So I just switched to Sofi and the Samsung Card. I didn't know there was a verification for every purchase. This sucks, and it's embarrassing when using it in stores.

The 2fa you mean

[Teepea313]

When you have to text and tell them it's you.

That's 2fa I think it's good feature to verify it's you annoying perhaps but keeps you alerted to any misuse

[Teepea313]

It's cool online, but overwhelming in stores because it has you holding up the line just to reply to the text message.

Not sure which it is maybe samsung pay i seen used in stores they tap phone on the keypad thing and add pin might be able to adjust the text option not sure

Don't worry; it will soon stop. When I started using mine frequently, I experienced the same issues. But after some time, it stopped disturbing me. I use the tap to pay feature as well.

Thank you that's good to know 😊

I haven't done that ever. Is there a setting for that?

[Teepea313]

I'm not sure. I called both Samsung and Sofi, and they told me it couldn't be removed.
