one-time password. The one-time password can be provided either as an 
email to an email address or to a mobile phone via text message. The 
customer also has the option of receiving a one-time password readable 
by a two-factor authentication application on a mobile device. If the 
authentication application option is selected, the customer can either 
scan a QR code or enter a text code.
