    One way to secure your digital wallet using a phone number is to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) with your mobile number. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring you to enter a code sent to your phone whenever you log in or make a transaction. It helps prevent unauthorized access even if someone has your password. Make sure to choose a strong password and keep your phone number confidential to further enhance security.

    Securing your digital wallet with a phone number is a smart move. You can use a mobile app that generates one-time passwords (OTP) linked to your phone number. This way, even if someone manages to get hold of your password, they won't be able to access your wallet without the OTP. It's like having a double lock on your wallet, making it much more secure.
