If you’re an Everyday Rewards member, you’ll soon need to take an extra step to keep your account safe.
Woolworths has announced changes to its popular program to introduce multi-factor authentication, making it harder for scammers to get their hands on your points and personal info.
What’s Changing and Why?
In the coming months, Woolworths will roll out an update that requires you to provide your mobile number to access the Everyday Rewards app. This might seem like a hassle, but it’s a crucial step in keeping your account secure. With the rise of online scams, multi-factor authentication is becoming the norm to protect customers’ sensitive information.
What You Need to Do
To avoid any issues accessing your Everyday Rewards account, make sure you manually enter your phone number into the app before the update is released. This is a one-time task that will ensure you can continue to earn and redeem your points without any disruptions.
How to Update Your Info
Updating your information is easy and can be done through the Everyday Rewards website or app. Here’s how:
- Open the app or website, and select ‘My Account’
- Click on ‘My Details’ or ‘Update Account Details’ to update your personal information
- Enter your mobile number to link it to your Everyday Rewards account
By taking these simple steps, you’ll be ensuring that your account is as secure as possible. According to an Everyday Rewards spokesperson, “The verification codes will only be sent to the mobile number linked to the Everyday Rewards account and not the email address, so we’re asking our members to ensure they have an up-to-date mobile number linked to their account.”
Why This Change Matters
This update is a crucial step in Woolworths’ efforts to protect its customers’ sensitive information. With multi-factor authentication, you’ll have an added layer of security to prevent scammers from accessing your account. And, by linking your mobile number to your Everyday Rewards account, you’ll be able to receive verification codes quickly and easily, making the process as smooth as possible.
