# Account & security

> Wallet sign-in, MFA, email recovery, and switching between player and maker roles.

## Sign in

ezpz.fi uses your **Solana wallet** (Phantom, Solflare, etc.) for authentication. Connecting your wallet creates or links a **custodial account** used for trading.

You sign the wallet connection once. Most predictions execute without a per-trade wallet popup.

## Email and MFA

Open **Settings** (`/settings`) to:

| Setting        | Purpose                                                           |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Email**      | Account recovery and notifications                                |
| **MFA (TOTP)** | Required for withdrawals on mainnet; recommended for all accounts |

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Settings">
    Click your avatar → **Settings**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add email">
    Bind an email address and verify it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable MFA">
    Scan the QR code with an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.). Save your **recovery codes** offline.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Without MFA, withdrawals may be blocked on mainnet. Store recovery codes securely — losing both your authenticator and recovery codes can lock you out of sensitive actions.
</Warning>

## Player vs maker accounts

**Players** and **makers** are separate account types:

| Role       | Can do                                           |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **Player** | Browse, predict, parlay, withdraw                |
| **Maker**  | Create markets, seed liquidity, claim maker fees |

You **switch roles** via account switching — you cannot upgrade a player account in place. Makers also need MFA and a funded custodial wallet before publishing.

See [For makers](/guides/makers) for the maker onboarding flow.

## Custodial wallet

Your custodial wallet is a Solana keypair managed by the platform:

* Holds USDC and outcome token ATAs
* Submits trades on your behalf after UI confirmation
* Visible on [Solana Explorer](https://explorer.solana.com) by address

Funds remain on-chain. The platform does not commingle your USDC with a house bankroll — market vaults hold prediction collateral separately.

## Withdrawal security

Withdrawals require:

1. MFA verification (mainnet)
2. A valid destination Solana address
3. Sufficient USDC balance (positions must be sold, redeemed, or refunded first)

See [Deposit & withdraw](/trading/deposit-withdraw).

## Session and sign-out

Sign out from the account menu to disconnect your session. Your on-chain balances and positions persist — reconnect with the same wallet to access them.
