Why Should I Add Biometric Security?

Learn why enabling Face ID or biometric authentication makes your Yeeld account more secure and quicker to access.

Why Should I Enable Biometric Security?

If your device supports biometric authentication, we strongly recommend enabling it for your Yeeld account.

Using Face ID or your device's biometric authentication provides an additional layer of security while making it quicker and easier to access the app.


Enhanced Security

Biometric authentication helps ensure that only you can access your Yeeld account.

Unlike a passcode, your biometric information is unique to you, making it much more difficult for someone else to unlock your app.

Your biometric data is securely stored on your device and is never shared with Yeeld.


Faster Access

Once enabled, you can unlock the Yeeld app with a quick glance or biometric scan instead of entering your 4-digit app passcode each time.

This makes signing in and authorising certain actions faster and more convenient.


An Industry Standard

Biometric authentication has become the standard way to securely access financial apps and other services containing sensitive information.

Using it helps protect your account while providing a smooth and convenient user experience.


Is It Required?

No.

Biometric authentication is optional.

If you choose not to enable it, you can continue using your 4-digit app passcode to access the Yeeld app.


In Summary

If your device supports biometric authentication, enabling it is one of the easiest ways to improve the security of your Yeeld account.

It provides stronger protection, faster access and a more convenient experience, while keeping your biometric information securely stored on your own device.
