Why is there not a 2 factor authentication account login option with nerdwallet?  It’s considered a best practice and would bolster confidence in linking accounts.

  Pretty surprised this isn't an option. I'm pretty hesitant to sign up for a financial service that doesn't offer even at least basic MFA via SMS, though MFA through an app like Authy, 1Password or similar is preferred.

  Hi Jason -

  Thanks for posting to the forum!

  NerdWallet accounts do not contain funds or perform financial transactions; but NerdWallet does use 2 factor authentication when you link financial accounts to your NerdWallet account.

  Best Regards,

  Victor
