Namebase 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

namebase.io Supported

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

Whoever controls your Namebase account controls your domains, so 2FA keeps them from being stolen. Namebase secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

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

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

How to recover your Namebase account

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