About this app

The Macquarie Authenticator app provides an extra layer of security that helps protect your account and personal information and is our most secure way to authenticate.

It's a mobile app that sends actionable push notifications for you to approve or deny online transactions and account changes, or generate a unique one-time rolling code as an alternative authentication method. You’ll find it’s faster and easier than SMS, and it works more seamlessly when you’re travelling overseas as it’s connected to your device, not your phone number. If you happen to be travelling and you're not connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network, the Macquarie Authenticator app will give you the option to use a rolling code to verify your transaction.

When you use Macquarie Authenticator, you can rest easy knowing your money and data are even more secure.

Features include:
- Receive push notifications for real time authentication to approve or deny online transactions or account changes.
- Generate unique rolling codes (one-time passcodes) without data connection as an alternative method to authenticate.
- Tasks allow you to manage pending tasks.
- PIN, fingerprint* to unlock and approve your app for secure approvals.

*For devices that support fingerprint

Supported products:
- Macquarie Transaction Account
- Macquarie Savings Account
- Macquarie Home Loan
- Macquarie Credit Card
- Macquarie Cash Management Account
- Macquarie Consolidator Cash Account

App suddenly says it's tied to another device so I can't transfer money anymore. To access live chat to fix the solution you need to login and use the authenticator which no longer works. Absolute headache, avoid at all costs.

When there is a problem with the authenticator i.e. app crashing, you can't receive codes or push notifications, and to remove it from your account, it sends the code to the authenticator, which again, you can't receive. Then you spend thirty minutes to customer service to get it removed just to regain access to your own account. When you don't have the god awful authenticator, every transaction you are pestered to install it.

Incredibly frustrating - app starts thinking it was tied to another device and now won't provide codes without calling Macquarie. Awful - avoid this and use SMS verification if possible
