Didn't work? Here's what to do
If the email or SMS code doesn't arrive, check that your registered email and phone number are correct, and check your spam folder. If the code arrives with an error or gets rejected, request a new one instead of retrying several times in a row. If the issue continues, contact our team through chat.
