MS Authenticator App

How to enable 2FA on Galaxus

Enable two-factor authentication on Galaxus to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Galaxus asks for a rotating code from MS Authenticator App in addition to your password.

Step-by-step setup

  1. 1

    Sign in to Galaxus and open your Galaxus account security settings.

  2. 2

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  3. 3

    Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.

    Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Galaxus displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  4. 4

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Galaxus account.

  5. 5

    Save your backup codes.

    Store the recovery codes Galaxus gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on Galaxus can change — the official Galaxus 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
