Moniker 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

moniker.com Supported

Moniker supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Moniker account.

Whoever controls your Moniker account controls your domains, so 2FA keeps them from being stolen. Besides an authenticator app, Moniker also offers email codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience.

2FA methods Moniker supports

  • Email code

  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 Moniker's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Moniker and open your Moniker 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 Moniker 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 Moniker account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Moniker account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Moniker 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 Moniker doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Moniker's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
