Two-Step Authentication



To help protect your EPP account from fraudulent activity and add extra security, we are adding two-step authentication. You can use an Authentication application or text message (SMS) as the second step. International users should use an Authentication application.

Choose an option to verify your access:



 


What is text message (SMS)?

Each time you log into your account with your password, we’ll send a one-time use code via text message (SMS) to your verified cell phone. You will then enter that code to verify your account access. Message and data rates may apply.

What is an authentication app?

Authentication apps generate security codes for signing in to sites that require a high level of security. You can use these apps to get security codes even if you don’t have an internet connection or mobile service. A mobile phone app is the typical example of an authentication app, but other forms exist, including applications for desktops, browser extensions, and physical hardware.

Any application that implements the time-based one-time password (TOTP) standard and can use a QR code or accept a manually entered key will also work.

After installing and configuring the application to work with the registrar, you will be able to receive security codes for your account. Some options for authentication apps include:

Please note that some authentication apps have a cost.
