Troubleshooting trusted devices

If you’ve already set up a trusted device and it’s not receiving push notifications, the steps below might help.


I’m not receiving the push notification with my 4-digit sign-in OTP?

Check your push notification settings

If you’re not receiving the push notification with your 4-digit sign-in OTP, it’s possible that push notifications aren’t enabled for the Luno app on your mobile device.

Tip

Not sure how to check if push notifications are enabled? No problem. Find out how to here.

Once you’ve enabled push notifications, try signing in again.


Resend the sign-in OTP via email

If your push notifications are enabled and you’re still not receiving your 4-digit sign in OTP via push notification, you can resend the OTP via email instead. To do this, sign in using your email address and password. When prompted to check your push notifications:

  1. Select Not receiving push

  2. And select Resend via email

The 4-digit sign-in OTP will be resent to the primary email address linked to your Luno account.


Remove and add a new trusted device

If you no longer have access to your trusted device, you can easily remove it and add a new one.

  1. Make sure you sign in using the Luno app on the new device you wish to trust

  2. Sign in to your Luno account by resending the 4-digit sign in OTP via email as outlined above

  3. Under your Profile section, select Security

  4. Go to Devices

  5. Follow the steps in this article to remove your old trusted device

  6. And lastly, follow the steps in this article to add a new trusted device

Note

Luno will never ask you to trust a device for us. To avoid falling victim to scams, only trust devices that you own and never at the request of someone else.
