When are two-step authentications required?<\/summary>\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

To reduce the likelihood of fraudulent activity, we’re using a one-time password (OTP) SMS and email as a two-factor authentication (2FA) when you login, create payees, make transactions including a few other tasks on World Account.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can update your email and phone numbers by visiting My account > Security settings. If you can not receive the email or SMS, there are three ways to retry:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Click <\/span>“Resend”<\/strong><\/span> to receive the OTP code, it should take 5-10 seconds<\/span><\/li>
  • Change OTP verification method by clicking <\/span>“Change method”<\/strong><\/span><\/li>
  • Upon login to the new portal, go to <\/span>“Security settings”<\/strong><\/span> found in the top-right dropdown bar to update your 2FA phone number and email address. Contact us at +65 6805 4380 or seaclients@service.worldfirst.com if you face further issues<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Alternatively, you can use the Twillio Authy App to complete your two-factor authentications. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    How do I complete authentications via the Authy App?<\/summary>\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    \n

    If you have the Authy App, you can complete verifications by simply clicking on a push notification without having to enter codes. You can download the Authy App and register with the same phone number you have on file with WorldFirst. And then, you can go to “My account” > “Security settings”<\/strong> in your WorldFirst portal to bind your Authy account.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

      \n
      Can I have more than one World Account?<\/summary>\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n
      \n
      \n

      If you’re a registered business that is a group, i.e., a parent with a subsidiary, you can register for more than one World Account. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You can also have these accounts linked together to view and manage your parent and subsidiary entities in a single view. Contact us for more information and support to group your accounts together. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      • Click <\/span>“My account”<\/strong><\/span> <\/span><\/li>
      • Scroll to <\/span>“Sub-accounts”<\/strong><\/span><\/li>

        How can I manage multiple accounts together?<\/summary>\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n
        \n

        If you are the master account holder, you can see the main account as well as any associated sub-accounts by viewing your profile. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        • Click <\/span>“My account”<\/strong><\/span> <\/span><\/li>

          \n
          \n

          If you’re authorised to access the main account and sub-accounts, then you don’t need a separate login. Once you log into one account, you can see the master account or sub-accounts under \u201cMy account’ and navigate between accounts while you’re logged in. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          If you’re an employee of the sub-account and don’t have access to the master account or other sub-accounts, you won’t have permission to access or view these. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          • Click <\/span>“My account” <\/strong><\/span><\/li>

              There are several reasons why we might need to close your WorldFirst account. Whilst we can\u2019t disclose the specific reasons for regulatory reasons, please note that the following factors could have any impact:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              When applying for your account, we may require you to provide us with additional information and documents from time to time to provide information that allows us to:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              • Verify the source of the funds, including but not limited to invoices for services delivered for which you are being paid<\/span><\/li>
              • Verify payment confirmation from the entity sending the funds<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Failure to provide such requested information may result in us denying your use of the World Account. All information you provide us must be accurate and complete. If we cannot verify that this information is accurate, we may deny or terminate your use of the World Account.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                If you don’t use your World Account for a period of 12 months or more, we may suspend or close your account.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                We may also require you to provide additional documentation and information that we may reasonably request to assist us in meeting our Compliance Obligations and you may need to re-apply to open a World Account.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                There are transactions on your account that we can’t complete<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Please note: no account is closed until you receive email confirmation back from us. We reserve the right to close accounts that have not been used for an extended period.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"doc_category":[37],"doc_tag":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAccount
