General steps; menu names vary. Australian Retirement Trust's own guide has the exact screens.

  1. Sign in to Australian Retirement Trust and open your account's security settings. Look for two-step verification or two-factor authentication. Australian Retirement Trust's own guide shows the exact screens.
  2. Add your phone number and enter the code Australian Retirement Trust sends, to confirm it.
  3. Save the backup codes. Keep them in your password manager or print them; they're your way back in if you lose your phone or key.
  4. Ask your mobile carrier for a port-out PIN or number lock, so nobody can move your number to their SIM.
