No this is not an option. The purpose of 2SV is to reduce the reliance on having email as the single point of verification for your account. If you could verify using email then if somebody had access to your email account they would still be able to access your details. Using a phone or app prevents this from happening, keeping your charity and your supporters' data safe.

No. 2SV is there to protect our platform and your data.

2SV is only beneficial if all of users are required to enable it.
