7. Agree to the terms of service and click on the “Create Account” button.

Before transferring assets to Commex, it is necessary to set up account protection. It is recommended to enable two-factor authentication, anti-phishing code and create a whitelist of IPs for money withdrawal.

The rest of the options are optional. Instructions on how to configure the settings:

1. Go to the “Security” section.
2. Choose the method of authentication – with the help of Google Authenticator or by SMS. In the first case, you will need to download the program to your smartphone and follow the instructions. In the second case, you need to bind your phone number to receive the codes.
