Tips and news—
for your financial moves.

I just received a text from SoFi with a verification code, but I did not try to log in. Should I be worried?

Unexpectedly receiving a verification code (also called “two-factor authentication token”) from SoFi can happen when someone other than you attempts to access your account. The most common scenario is when you open a third-party app where you may have linked your SoFi account, such as a personal financial management tool. Opening up third-party apps where your SoFi account is linked is detected as a type of log in by SoFi—in some cases, you’ll need to enter this login code on the third-party app to refresh the apps’s connection with SoFi.

If you received a verification code when you were not attempting to log in to your SoFi account, and/or it is not through a third-party app, you should change your password. As a reminder, this password should be unique to your SoFi account and not be used for other online accounts or services.

How to Stop Emotional Investing and Make Smarter Money Decisions

February 3, 2026 • 33 min 34 sec • Guest: Erika Wasserman

Think your investment losses are about bad stock picks? Think again. Certified financial therapist Erika Wasserman reveals why 90% of your financial decisions are driven by emotion, not logic, and how your seven-year-old self still controls your money mindset today. Whether you’re panic-selling during market dips, avoiding money conversations with your partner, or wondering why you can’t seem to build wealth despite knowing all the “right” strategies, this episode will change how you think about money.

How digital wallets work with SoFi.

Add your SoFi Debit Card to a digital wallet and pay anywhere contactless payments are accepted. Every purchase is covered by the same protections as your physical card, plus the added security of tokenized transactions that keep your card details private.
