Login verification is a good thing to do because it adds an extra step, apart from your password, to ensure your EA/Origin account’s safety. Whenever a new device will attempt to log into your account, you will get a code that makes sure that it’s you. Here’s where to find your backup codes via EA account or Origin to play FIFA or other games.
There are various reasons why you might need a backup code for your EA account. A user may lose access to their phone, the authenticator app may not work, access to the email address may be lost, etc. Keep reading to know what you should do before that happens so that you can still play FIFA and other EA games.
