1. What is changing in the BDO Securities login process?
Starting October 9, 2026, BDO Securities will introduce Push Authentication as the default method for verifying login requests.

Push Authentication is a secure login verification method that sends an approval request to your registered mobile device through the BDO Online app. You simply need to review the login details and approve the request to access your account.
