- nextos 5y agoThat's interesting. What 2FA system do they use exactly? AFAIK, N26 still uses on-time codes sent by SMS which I regard as very insecure.
- jounker 5y agoIt had completely depended on the bank. In the Netherlands, 20 years ago it was a hardware OTP device. Same with a big Swiss bank ten years ago. Up until a few years ago with a big german bank it was a physical sheet of OTPs. Now it’s a mobile app that either recognizes a challenge image, or receives a challenge by network.
- Semaphor 5y agoN26 has always used their proprietary app confirmation. I never (in over 5 years) got an SMS instead from them. But that’s in Germany, maybe it differs between countries?
