How to enable 2FA on Nominet
Enable two-factor authentication on Nominet to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Nominet asks for a rotating code from MS Authenticator App in addition to your password.
Step-by-step setup
- 1
Sign in to Nominet and open your Nominet account security settings.
- 2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
- 3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Nominet displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
- 4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Nominet account.
- 5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes Nominet gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.
Menu names on Nominet can change — the official Nominet 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
