bypass 2-factor ID for trusted computer

I'm considering turning on 2-factor ID, but I have a question first.  I would like my main home computer to not have to go through the 2-factor login every time I log into PP, that would be a **bleep**.  Before I turn this on, is there a way to "trust" just one computer as there is for most other financial services?  Since PP "trusts" this computer when making payments, does that carry over to 2-factor login?

Hello @gunrunnerjohn,

 

Welcome! I was able to pull this information from the following Help Center article: How do I turn on or off 2-step verification for PayPal account login?

 

"You can opt to skip 2-step verification on a device you trust. Simply log in to PayPal on the device and complete 2-step verification, then you’ll see the option to trust this device. To opt out, go to the “2-step verification” section in your Settings and revoke the permission on this device."

 

I hope that helps!
