The fact that many banks still don't have at least app-based 2FA should be criminal.

App-based would be bad, as bank apps are notoriously unfriendly to people who don't own Google/Apple smartphones. Rather, a TOTP or Yubikey.

That's what I mean by app-based. Something like Authy or Google Authenticator, etc.

Thanks, I was about to suggest this too. Aegis is awesome. :) I can't understand why most banks sms a code instead of using something like this. It's insanity.

Probably certifications and paperwork for implementing this stuff + educating the customers with a significant higher entry cost than paying the 100k € for the SMS bill
