How 2-step verification works
2-step verification enhances the security of your Vinted account and earnings by adding an extra layer of protection.
We might want to make sure it’s really you who’s using your account. So if we detect any unusual activity, we'll send you a code. Enter this code on your Vinted screen to confirm your identity and continue using our platform securely.

NoteEnsuring your data’s safety on Vinted is one of our top priorities. If you’d like to learn more about how we handle your personal data, check out our Privacy Policy.
- If you receive a code to your phone but you haven’t recently made any changes to your Vinted account, we recommend renewing your password.
- If we notice any suspicious login attempts, we might ask you to verify your account via email.
- In some cases, you can set up your phone to use biometric authentication instead of an SMS code for verification.
