CoinDCX 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

coindcx.com Supported

Protect your CoinDCX account with two-factor authentication (2FA). Once enabled, signing in also requires a one-time code from your authenticator app — not just your password.

Crypto transactions can't be reversed, so protecting your CoinDCX sign-in with 2FA is essential. Besides an authenticator app, CoinDCX also offers SMS text codes and email codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods CoinDCX supports

  • SMS text message
  • Email code
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan CoinDCX's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

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

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

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

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

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your CoinDCX account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If CoinDCX shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how CoinDCX recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

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

How to recover your CoinDCX account

If you lose access to your authenticator and CoinDCX gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If CoinDCX doesn't, or you didn't save them, use CoinDCX's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
