1. What are the authorized services?


Authorized services are third-party applications (Third-party Apps) or websites linked to your Gate.io account. This may include:

Portfolio tracking apps (Portfolio Trackers).

Automated trading bots (Trading Bots).

Data analysis websites that require access to your account information.

Account linking via technologies like OAuth (Quick Login).

2. Why is this item critical for your account security?
The danger lies in sometimes granting permissions to certain applications and then forgetting about them. If one of these third-party applications is compromised, hackers could access your Gate.io account data or execute trades on your behalf.
Therefore, monitoring this section ensures you:

Transparency: Know which applications still have access rights.

Quick response: Ability to disconnect from any service you suspect is insecure.

Reduce attack surface: Keep your account connected only to necessary and active services.

3. How to regularly manage this section?
To ensure the highest security standards, it is recommended to follow these steps:

Weekly review: Regularly visit "Authorized Services."

Revoke access (Revoke): For any application you no longer use, revoke its permissions immediately. Do not leave your account open to a trial service you used only once.

Audit permissions: Make sure the authorized service only requests what it needs (For example: read-only access and not withdrawal permissions).

4. Additional "Gemini" security tip
Besides monitoring authorized services, always ensure that the Anti-Phishing Code (Anti-Phishing Code) is enabled and set directly above the option you selected. This code guarantees that any email you receive is genuinely from Gate.io and not a phishing attempt.
