If you have more than one verification email, please be sure to open the most recent one you received from Helcim. - If you don't receive a verification email, please check your spam folder or email filters. If it's still missing, double-check that the email you use to log in is correct. - If you need further assistance, you can always [reach out to our support team](/v1/docs/creating-a-support-ticket). --- ## Next steps --- Keeping your contact information current is a great step for account security.
