To set up 2 step authentication on your account you will need either a mobile phone with Google Authenticator app installed
 
Android: - [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.authenticator2&amp;hl=en_GB Click Here]
 
IOS (IPhone) -[https://apps.apple.com/us/app/google-authenticator/id388497605 Click Here]
 
- OR -
 
If you don't have a mobile phone or would prefer to keep things localised on your browser, install the google authenticator Chrome Extension [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/authenticator/bhghoamapcdpbohphigoooaddinpkbai?hl=en Click Here]
 
'''Steps to Setting up 2 step'''
 
1. Login to your in game account and type ::2step
 
2. This will open a browser with a QR code http://courtingthelaw.com/wp-content/uploads/QR-code-example.jpg
 
3. Scan this barcode either with the google authenticator app or with the chrome extension[[File:Authenticator.png|center|400px]]4. This will now show up with your Redemption username and a 6 digit code which will change every 30 seconds[[File:Authenticator Num.png|center|400px]]5. Go back to your game client and type in the 6 digit code into the open chatbox window[[File:Authenticator Num1.png|center|600px]]6. Congratulations! If you followed the steps above and entered the 6 digit code correctly your account will be secured with 2step authentication[[File:Authenticator Validating.png|center]]What does this mean?[[File:Authenticator Login.png|center]]2 step authentication means that you must have access to the code to login from a new IP address. It is by far the most effective way of securing your account (we have not yet had a single verifyable report of a player being hacked who had ::2step enabled)
 
Should you try to login to your account from a new IP address you will be prompted to enter your 6 digit code off your app or chrome extension.
 
This number goes in the 'auth box' to below of where you enter your username and password (see Auth:123456)
