Description
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* and facial recognition*, to unlock and approve your app for secure approvals.
*For devices that support fingerprint and facial recognition

Ratings and Reviews
Integrating to the actual Mobile Banking app and choose own authenticator
I have a suggestion regarding the app. It would be great if it could be integrated into the Macqurie mobile banking app, or if users with a technology background could choose their own authentication app. I understand that security is a concern and not all users are tech-savvy, but providing this option would be beneficial to those who don't want to download an additional mobile app.
Not your regular 2FA…
I see a lot of people comments “…why do we need another Authenticator”…
Well, this is not “just another” 2FA as it enables real time transaction (payments, transfers,etc) from your banking portfolio. It improves security and piece of mind for anyone who have shared accounts, multiple authorised users to transact. I think it’s great! Can this be included in the main app? Probably… forced installation, I didn’t fell forced…can it be improved, probably, but that depends on the needs and expectations of the individual users, so hardly ever everyone will be happy. And if everyone is happy, something is not right ;)
There’s no point to this app
Every other banking app is able to integrate authentication into their main app. This app just takes up space on my phone.
While I’m at it, if I need to reset my permissions, it’s not possible to re-enable notifications without deleting and reinstalling the app.
